I like the suspense, the gothic touch, the thrills and the sci fi flare. Stellar!

apt description of dreams - the box, buried, with enlightenment inside. I say we dig them treasures up when we find them and see what jewels of truth we find. Dawn

Dig away,I hope you find treasures,this poem is a gem
that I am glad I found.

Yeah go ahead an unearth it
I'm sure everything you touch will turn to a beautiful magic
Will turm into a gem like this poem
thanks for sharing
love and peace

ah, the unearthing of buried dreams; now there's real adventure!
wonderfully conceived and expressed, robert.
peace,
carolyn

I think you should open it, Jude; the rest of us are likely to benefit with you from your actions. Thank you. Love and peace,

Regis

good one

Oh, live a little. Open it! LOL. Enjoyed the write, Jude.

Does this mean you are going to have fuel for another dream series of poems?

Nice visuals--ruby and emerald emanating from embriodered seams.

Ron

Carefully open the bloody thing, and let me know what contents are clinging to its interior.

Perhaps you are about to enter a new season in your life.

Richard the Intrepid

Sometimes, Jude, a Pandora's Box can contain a real find!
I enjoyed the imaginative swirls this one perked up for me.

A wonderful compelling poem, opening up a world of imagination! Dig up those dreams and give us more! Loved it,

I was with edgar Allan poe reading this, Juse - tell tale hearts, and being buried alive in the crypt. Very suspensful spine-tingling poem.

Yours are dreams of wisdom . Excellent poem

Go for it Ace...
Superb contemplative poem

Peter

Your poetic box of dreams truly has lots of treasures in it.

Hanging ten on the cusp of dreaming is the feelng I get while reading your pen. You presented a dare that I accept...fearlessly.
Susan

My, my, but yeah, you did "dare upsurge this box of dreams," Jude. Sfter reading Kate's comments I can only say . . . Dittoes!!!

Oooo... this so resonates across the strings of my own Box Of Sweat that it makes me... sweat! I must be constantly living in the heat of anticipation of seeing Pirates of the Caribbean 2 at the moment, and the suspense is killing... "Like buried treasure There is no choice But to unearth it"... well, you said it! :)) And, if that old thumping heart is telling you it contains the Key to all your other dreams put together, that it's the Holy Grail and the Flight Feather in your Dreamcatcher, then what are you waiting for?! Go on, Indianna... up that Firey Staircase and Into The Void you go... we're right behind you!!... Hey, have just twigged one of the reasons why we connect... we are perhaps both lovers of Magic Realism, the South American writers, maybe - Marquez and Coelho - no? Anyways, be sure to leave a map for the rest of us... or at least a ball of string... Love this, feeling very Kiera Kate xx

This is a real life poem if there ever was one. We often face these gifts of dreams that test are strength and character. I agree with Kate, go for it.

Fee

I dare you :-)

They say founders keepers....so you dare to dream and to take whatever you find.....to be a gem....not a germ....lol!!

Great write Sir Robert Jude!!

Love Tinka :)

Well Jude, from my vantage point out on spy sattelite OZDU, I see some priceless gems glowing....

;) Ch'erie

Millenia-old Baltic emerald and red garnet faceted, the warmth of a thousand dawns, beveled jewels for a seer such as yourself, Jude, the box of dreams perhaps will unearth a five-pointed star pentacle, a pattern said to be traced to Venus every four years. A keepsake Forese signature...

Sage

An exciting prospect,like unearthing jewels of different colors, shapes, and sizes. all may not be worth much,but your bound to find a few precious gem among them.After all they are your dreams!

Robert, I love your dream sequence...wonderful writing!
