Dreams

Some dreams are nightmares. Some are sweet dreams and some are warnings for us to shape-up. Pity and depression can't control your life.

     Dreams

I have been dreaming of dead friends and family.
I have returned to forgotten and lost places.

Kind faces had came to me to have long talks.
I have become tire and weak.
I believe old friends and family have concern for my broken
and confused spirit.

My body and mind is worn out.
I go forward with a hollow soul
walking into blank and empty places.

I have been cursed and blessed in a life of high and lows.
I have been loved and hated.
I didn't care if I danced on hot coal or in the cold sea of emotion.

Love was never a priority.
The desire to discover new places and unknown mysteries
was my need.

Today I desire silence.
To be alone with my paper and pen.
I want to write something to reawaken my heart and mind.

Old dead friend talks to me in my dreams. He told me. "Johnnie. you
are going be alright, don't slow down. A lot of living is left for you."

Dear Ojibwa Grandmother whisper and caress my forehead. She whispered.
"I love you sweeties. Relax and calm down. You are doing okay."

The dreams are kind. Causing no fear.
Old age had taught me. Love and friendship is never forgotten.
They come back to us to reassure us.

We are okay and we must go on for the people who cannot.

Coyote, you are an old pro.. don't be to hard on yourself. You crank out the poems left right & center.. sometimes you just need to chill and relax. Take some chillax time & don't worry about what people think.. we are all going to love your writings as always.. we always do... I will pray for you my dear friend. We have been friends for a few years now. I don't necessarily need to know what is getting you tired & down. Just know that I am praying for you.. Hugs n Love ok. Mwah!

Thank you for your kind words. Too much is happening. I don't worry for myself. I'm old and gray. I worry for the young people. My kids and all kids. They need opportunity and hope. I hope all is going well with you.

I think our inner subconscious mind are helping us, the inner strength of our soul. Reminding us to be wise, and live-up of the current state of mind. In life there is always something that wears us down, to the point of being depress over little things… dreams are often a stress reliever often times, it’s an escape momentarily and wake up renewed…

very expressive piece my friend...

Thank you Pax. I agree with you. Dreams can warn us to slow down or change something in our life.

Thank you for reading and the comment. I have study dreams for 30 plus years. A wise person listen to their dreams. Nightmares mean stress.
