The Dream Search



The sky is on fire tonight
Irregularly streaked with molten iron
And not done yet
My search brought me to this old place


Gazing at horizon afar
And in spirit I dig deep into the past
Within my imagination I am with other people
Other people who also dream of hope
And about love… peace for every one
But my search does not bring me anything
And I remain part of this…
Because in scripture and tradition…
In every old language…
There were tears and unhappiness
Like in every other story’ told
There are voices rising…
As if I can still hear them…
Of people that long for freedom and love
Because the yearning for blitheness and joy
We will never let go of…
And through nebulosity of time
We will always hear another song…
O’ as there are voices echoing like a choir
With joy we will reach for our dreams
For the love within we will reach out
And try to catch that dream
Our dream!!

Ahhh Tinka what would our lifes be without the ability and desire to dream. You and I are born dreamers as are many of our fellow writers here in our extended family...dreams are the heart of a poets life.

Great write Tink,

Joy and sadness are on the same coin.
Gotta never give up dreaming. But to dream is not enough.
You gotta go live the dream..
