Hopes and Dreams

...sometimes things happen for a reason

 

On a dreary day I found

That my heart could beat again

The hopes and dreams of another

 

You came into my life silently,

Unbeknownst to me

In the guise of a warrior

 

You would come and give me

Something to hold on to,

Something to believe in again

 

The sound of your voice,

Soft words spoken gently

On a quiet night’s breeze

I hear them still…

 

Faith and the hint of other thoughts

Lingering translucently, waiting

To be discovered together…

 

Only time will tell

What the future holds

Destiny abound…

How lovely,Amanda... You describe what happens when dreams come true. I hear too often folks say that they don't need anyone to be happy, but I just don't buy it. We were created to love. Sure we can exist without it, but we can't really live a truly happy and fulfilled life.

A silent warrior comes along and sweeps you off into the stars...

And you believe again...
Hold on yet again...

As your answer is found within destiny.

Smooth to the senses, leaving the reader lingering in what might be...

Lovely, my friend, I've missed you. Welcome back...

Very wistful ... full of hope.

Beautiful, just beautiful Amanda. Your words are so deeply moving and hopeful. Unexpected love is the best kind...it comes out of the heavens and descends on hearts true...the gift of all gifts.
You have excelled here and love is the absolute theme. There is a moment of niggling doubt in your closing lines, but somehow I don't believe you need to worry about that.
Loved it...so romantic and real...
Real is everything.
Cheers,

Helen :-)

We do find what we need when we least expect it, there are human angels all around, who know you may be there's as well. A beautiful full poem of hope and faith.

[THE LOST ROSE]

I believe everything happens for a reason. It is nice to read your poetry again. It is so graceful. I think you are the most graceful writer I ever come across on this site. This poem is thought provoking and powerful and so few words. Standing "O" and I love this verse;

Faith and the hint of other thoughts
Lingering translucently, waiting
To be discovered together�
