‘Castles In The Sky’

Dreams and desires are not always as they seem

‘Castles In The Sky’

What happened
To those
Castles
In the
Sky?
Did they
Disappear
And die?
Why?
Did your
Dreams,
Turn out
Not to
Be as they
Seemed-
Not to
Be redeemed?
The belief
That you
Had-
Was it
Really
So bad,
That you
Became so
Withdrawn
And sad?
I thought
The trust,
Which you
Said-
Was a definite
Must,
Would be
The answer,
And help us
Push through-
But little
I knew-
That wasn’t
The real
You.
Your spirit
That died,
As if you
Had never
Even
Tried-
The tears that
I cried-
As if
A changing
Of tide-
Washing over
Dreams,
From an
Ocean,
Into the
Streams-
Was not
What it
All seemed-
Some
Distant
Dream.

"Castles in the Sky"
Thoughts in Time,
"The beleif that you had was it really so bad?" this is the central spoke which the whole poem turns on. How many of us begin to slowly loose former optimism and sparkling belief which holds us? I suppose change is bound to come. Oh, that we could find new shimmering hope and courage as we move through the seasons of life. For our lives are not our own. We defineitly all create ripples where we live and move.
blessings,

Your words are so true for we bling to none only God- He decides our ways and times for each happening and event- we need to see further sndcrealise how blessed we are no matter what as believe in ourselves and have faith all will be as it should- people sometimes make their own pain and hardships but all shall be well- blessings in abundance to you as well and Thankyou for taking time I do appreciate🌹

Thoughts in Time,
I sometimes feel that life has so many hurdles to jusmp but then it is as if God tells me: "Turn to me, I am you supply and wisdom and strength are mine to give." Holy God is all wisdom and power to live this life.

Amen to that- he say’ those of you that are heavy lakebed come to me and I shall give you rest’- so many testimonies I can tell if walking in faith daily where like you say there are so many hurdles to jump but the jumping is fun when God is always by your side- he says I will never leave you or desert you’- he says- ‘ I will pull you out of the mirey pit’ - He’s done that for me and set my feet on solid ground which is then our choice whether we go back to the sinking sand or not- life is not fair but He is and remember that when you feel that you are drowning- remember your lifeguard walks on water- renewing of the mind and protecting your heart- blessings and much love and know all shall be well- He goes before us and makes all our paths straight- now I pray for you that Lord you commission your angels according to Psalm 91 to go out and cover this wonderful child of yours I pray that the Link Angels and Warriors angels stand over her and her family in the mighty name of the Lord and keep them safe- that no weapon formed against them shall prosper and no kingdom raised against them shall come to pass- I pray that you release your anointing upon her now and keep her covered under your precious blood- there is power in the blood- I thank you Lord for what you doing in her life right now- I ask you to give her your peace above all understanding let her know that if you are for her none can be against her- I pray this now in the mighty name of Jesus amen- blessings🌹

Remember what Ges told us about the Lilies...they do not question or worry....

Thoughts in time,
All I can say is thank you. Jesus is my covering but it does not mean that I do not sometimes become fearful. It is interesting we live in this world but are not of it' as scripture points out.john 17:17 Regardless of circumstance, if not for the hope I carry of Christ where would be life? I cannot think of that!
Again, I want you to know your heart and compassion have not gone unnoticed!
Blessings,
Kathy

Ephesians 6- ‘For we do not fight against flesh ....’ a spiritual battle but in our knees is where we gain strength and soar like eagles- faith like a potato- for we are not given a spirit of fear....blessings🌹

[Kathy Van Kurin]

Thank you dear writer friend! Keep being a blessing to others as well. Peace to you.

The overwhelming feeling from this piece is to be careful what you wish for, as the lesson is learned that what we wish for never quite matched the picture we imagined, both good and bad. We can only be as strong as all involved allow, and if their is an imbalance of honesty, then surely we shall topple.
Resignation is seeing the truth for the first time and knowing we have failed.
I thought I would check out yiur earlier stuff. Glad I did :)

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Glad you did and you are so right- we might just get it but we don’t always get what we wish for but what we need- Thankyou for reading🌹
