Meet Me In Dreams

 

Since we cannot be together

meet me

in the midst of mist of dreams

where time and place are abstractions

Greet me in the whirlwind of dreams

where sun and moon and stars and sea

and sky and rain and snow

and sleet and hail

and fire

yes fire

all wind up in the whirlpool of a rainbow

Meet me in the haze of dreams

where no one sees us

and even if they do

they don’t care

Meet me in the miasma of dreams

where it’s only you and me

and their rules be damned

Reg, where I come from, many of us (we are OFWs) live on dreams. Couples part for one to work elsewhere for the family to survive. Our dream is what keeps body and soul together. This beautiful piece aptly expresses what we feel and struck deep into my soul. Thank you and be well Reg, my friend.

I am not sure, but this beautiful work somehow left me sad. It spoke of a Bourgeois tragedy. I see in my mind’s eye someone that is missing, a lost love or family member. And therefore, “Meet me in my dreams.”

Or perhaps it is the merely my imagination. An inexplicable pull towards the humanistic relationships that truly make us feel, and know we are alive.

Either way, it was a superb poem.

Best wishes,
Mark
