Dreams

A mind at peace with all below she is beauty such so ever bright Smile to win the hearts that glow a wonder to the sight

Lucy Hamilton Princess of Ireland.

Another life I dream of now

thoughts of others nay-ere to wed

Where love has waited on the bow

shown in beauty of all she said

 

I watched as she descended stairs

and dreamed the world was none but gay

With her my life had lost the cares

where we would dance the night away

 

The witted banter of close friends

then came the music swaying crowds

As dreams of love that never ends

on high the heaven’s streaming clouds

 

From marbled hall and wooded glade

of noble thoughts I was endowed

For love of her my heart had stayed

a life un-wavered and un-bowed

To he whom ever loved so true

we bless the winds of salvation

Red tresses flow in green eyed hue

oh this wonder of creation

Author's Note

Oh who can say what they would do if the winds had only blown them to distant shores. I wrote this of the dreams of another life not lived. I do not believe we are only able to love one person in life. I think there are thousands whom we might fall in love with if the time and place were right. It is the fates that leads us to our destiny. And this is just a thought on how life could be different if the winds had blown the opposite direction.

You, my dear, are a hopeless romantic; and I love it! It seems you like women as well as love them, this is a very desirable trait in the male of the species, and all too rare.
I believe you are correct, actually, I know you are correct, you can love more than one person. (Hopefully, not at the same time. LOL)

Such a beautiful poem. Good to see you posting again.

[Tate Morgan]

thank you I havent really come round to getting back into everything yet. I am trying

[Raya]

Well, though not much of a romantic in real life, I am a sucker for this poem. Well done Tate.

If only we could be in two places in life at the one time and experience all that life has to offer. Go with the now not the what if. Really nice concept Tate.

[WILDERNESS]

Very interesting concept...I do believe to some degree we choose our own destiny.Also we don't know what could have been because we chose another side road or turned our heads another way when fate was pushing us along.Very good write Tate..leaves me thinking and that is always a good thing

[Tate Morgan]

thank you carol we are all just pawns to the fates

[L.Edward]

Yes, wonderful muse. Some powerful truth. I believe too, that if I had of made different choices I could have been just as happy as I am now but in a different kind of life. Because I dont believe in pre-destination. I believe we can still connect with the expanded awareness of our other potential lives in the dream space and use that wisdom and energy in ways that are meaningful to the particular life that we are living now.

thank you Levi

Love it, and in a slightly different vein, I said, "Some people follow a road map, but I am thankful for my detours, because they took me to 'beautiful places' I might not have experienced otherwise." Fate was good to me, and yes, there can be more than one person in your life....

I like your picture of the original airline stewardesses - a friend of mine traveled the world with TWA, and oh, the tales she can tell.

[Tate Morgan]

Thank you my mothers sister was one of those and did she tell tales lol

The slightest circumstance can change so much. That ripple in the pond goes on and on and on...

[Tate Morgan]
