Real Life

 

I find myself in lands of fantasy

in far off places, just you and me

Places outside of regular life

where there is no such thing

as crime or strife

Worlds full of wonder and glee

things to do, places to see

No rich, no poor, no poverty

Just oceans of green, skies of blue

sunshiny days and time with you

We would do well to remember

to enjoy our stay as it will be short

just until the next morn, then back

to the real world of murders,

suicides & dark drizzly days

Tomorrow will bring all new things

love, hope, joy and lots of new

wonderful dreams

We hope...

Tomorrow will bring all new things
love, hope, joy and lots of new
wonderful dreams

We hope...


I love that stanza Windy! Love it!
How uplifting and positive --
Life truly is what we make it --
Dreams are only as far as our imagination --
Which makes them even closer
to us then what's going on around us --

Lovely work! Just lovely! :)

I love it! Reality can be a downer at times, and our dreams take us into worlds far larger then the real one could ever be. If there is a line that clearly demarks between the two realms, I have yet to find it. If there was such a line, I would think it is as simple as closing one's eyelids and letting our imagination soar.

You have outdone yourself with this piece Lady Windy!

Much Love,
Aaron

Just oceans of green, skies of blue
sunshiny days and time with you -- Hey! This is where I live! Are you coming to visit me?! haha

What a wonderful dream to have. Very nicely written!

(This really is why I moved here to the beach! I have these days every day, well, except during hurricane season! haha)

This really is an inspiration and, an example of how the mind works, how the mind finds priorities, Your words and phrases are so finely put..

Can't bury heads in sands, not hide these terrible things in life - they exist.. but, isn't it amazing how one special person can fill your being with light and comfort. Wonderful

And, wonderful post. Thank you for sharing.

Where ever this place is, it sounds very nice. Can I get a bus ticket there?

It is hot as heck in my room-sitting here on my laptop...reading that gave me a chill. That doesn't happen to me that often. I feel something powerful from you. Great job. I have to read more of your wonderful writings.
Enjoy the moment! -Lyrical

I loved the formatting here - I think it adds to the punch of the piece. Our dreams are so often our escape from the harshness of reality - hopefully we manage to find that line; holding fast to the dream and remaining in reality. I agree that we need this escape - else we might lose our minds completely!

Windy, this is well crafted work that sets the readers heart adrfft, taken to far off places, magical places
dreams are made of, where there's no strife or chaos, an environment of solace, and peaceful surrounding,

reading the meaning has an encouraging effect on the mind, to ponder vast oceans and skies- eternal
by their own design, I really enjoyed the emotions sparked as I read, the images are sprite and vibrant,

combined with an insightful understanding of reality and its limited hold on the soul, soft and passionate.
you've created a joyous experience to dwell upon, I find myself taken by the hope. Very Well Written.
Take Care, Mike
