Dreams Are Gold

People only see what they are prepared to see ... Ralph Waldo Emerson

There is no end

to the rainbow

nor a pot of gold

an unseen dream

 

One reminded me

to have no regrets

for riches are always

held in your heart

 

You need only remember

where they are kept

knowing they never

really ever left

 

Life will gather clouds

darkness before the storm

and as sleep always comes

rainbows promise tomorrow

 

See all the colors

as your deepest wishes

look within to see them

and outward to find them

 

 

for dreams are the gold

We must be willing to look beyond the expected, the normal as your lead quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson indicates. Good will happen, bad will happen, but what shall we allow to direct our path? If we continue to embrace our dreams and keep them within our grasp, we shall not lose hope, but shall carry on in spite of the hardships and disappointments that come our way!
Wise thoughts! Yes, our dreams are gold!!

That is the crux of it all, Kdarcy. This makes me think of a favorite poem by Raymond Carver called, 'Late Fragment' -

And did you get what
you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want?
To call myself beloved, to feel myself
beloved on the earth.

This was nicely done. Angi~
