Never the dreams

Never the dreams

A Poem by Jon Roggie

When you are told you are a dreamer,
you know they have no clue.

Yes,
you dream.

How else can you create?

How can we expect to just stagnate.
Is that what you want?

The dreams are only a beginning.
They lead to creations.
Dreams are the pathway to next.

Those are the pathways to be followed.

We can't stay here.

We have to see what is next.

I think this is an idea only certain people will understand. Very simple and strait to the point.

For me dreams are the gifts from our creator, it gives us the opportunity to have a vision about our future... We all dream, some try to make them real and some keep them as their secrets... Every creation in this world has began from a dream... Very insightful write...

Insightful comments. Dreams are often simply the beginning. Thank you.
I find it interesting that "dreamer" has a negative connotation -- used as a synonym for lazy -- yet, every single inventor, entrepreneur, and artist in this world is a dreamer.

I blame Neil Gaiman. There is so much to be found in dreams, be they when you are awake or asleep. .. read more

I blame him for the entire Sandman series. It is still stuck in my head.
