Joyce,

I think it's so important to have dreams. Without them, we have nothing to work toward all our lives. This poem is beautifully written! I enjoyed reading it:)

Sharing dreams is hard for me. I sometimes think folks might think me foolish. So, I keep them inside me and one day they'll come into the light and oh will I be overjoyed that I finally gave them birth. In the meantime, I'll continue to carry them in my heart, until the time is right.

Thank you for this beautiful poem. Just what and when I needed it.

Sign me up, Dear Joyce.. I plead guilty to these and others, for dreams are what keeps us going in the right direction. I propose that you dream of my Georgia mountains... at least once a month, and I pledge to dream of your Kentucky mountains which you love so deeply. That way, all of these city slickers will have to eat their hearts out, right?????? Love, - Bill

Absolutely fantastic Joyce! Yes, you are so right. I know I have a few that I keep tending to and very quiety put them back where they belong, never to be shared. Such a heartwarming piece...

Be safe,
Karen

Joyce, we all have our little secrets tucked deep inside us and we dare not to share them with anyone. Some days these dreams can be so real that it takes us down a pathway of dreaming happiness. I truly enjoyed every line in this writing. Great!!!

Ahhhhhh! Great truth lies in your words of wisdom. My dreams are like my soul children--there to keep me motivated, to keep me actively involved with now and looking toward the treasures that tomorrow will bring. Wonderful write, Joyce.
