In My Dreams, I am Free

Alone in my room
Leaning back
Enjoying the breeze through the window
Hands on the keyboard
The keys clacking
Eyes closed
A smile gracing my lips

 

I know each word
Of each sentence
Each little alley
Each magneficent waterfall
Of this world

 

I understand
Each person inhabiting this world
And I laugh with them
Cry with them
Sing and dance with them

 

In my dreams
I am free
Like the wildflowers
Sprinkled here and there
In the fields
Like the boiling august sun
Radiating energy

 

In my dreams

I am free
Unwinding my fantasy

I know each bend of the river
Know each leaf of the tree
And when I set my pen on paper
I am free
I am free to be
Whatever I choose to be

In my dreams
I am free

I love your vocabulary in every one of your poems. The great words must be used again! Yes, dreams are a wondrous way to escape the toils of this world. I would be nothing without dreams but a mere specter.

[Bruce Grimes]

it is a very nice poem. and it doesn't mater if you write it in 3min 3 hour or 3 years what matter is if you are happy with it. Remember to always wright for your self and not worry about what others think of it. If your happy with it others will prob- love it because you will always be your own worst critic. I think the Poem was very perky and full of life which is probably a good refection of you. Good job

On the contrary, it is very good and a wonderful place of which you speak and a fine poem. Thank you for taking me out of my darkness for a short while. It may have only taken three minutes to write but it will be read for many hours.

Don't be too hard on yourself. I bet you hear that sometimes. I know it seems cliche but it's something to consider.

Beautiful with a touch of sadness. I like the theme and your pen upon it. Dreams are something we need to hold onto and not lose. Nice pen upon this piece.
