Dream with me cynics, open your heart
and breathe like a infants first breath.
A newborn's smile cracks for the first time
A mother's tired hands gently stroke your face.
Dream with me restless minds, your life is
begining every moment and don't waste it.
My subltle poetic words,
Scratched out on a sheet of paper,
Writting what comes and watching the
Sprouts of blomming leaves and flowers of an orchid.
Dream with me children, of a world
Peace and beauty.
The future holds more for you than ever me.
Close your eyes and see,
See a place clouds and jewels,
A forest of rain and sunshine.
Sounds of church bells and ice cream trucks.
A familar tone of a once innocent soul.
Dream with me, other me
And smile because your life can be full.
The cries of a fallen child squeeze my heart
Tightens my mind and crushes me.
If she closes her eyes, where would she go?
Would she fly to a place of pappillions and puppies,
Or would Paris cry for her?
Dream with me tonight, of butterflies.

This was lovely to read, there is so much joy to be found in life and when things are going well it is easy to take that for granted.
Your line "your life is
begining every moment and don't waste it." reminds me of the poem 'Begin' by Brendan Kennelly, a poem I find very comforting and inspiring. Your words contain that kind of hope.
Take care,
Dom

I agree with Dom, it is easy to not appreciate the smallest of things when life is a breeze. When life is clouded with problems at times we are so caught up we even thing forget to stop for moments and love the little things in the world around us.
This poem brought me such warmth and made me smile.......... Life can be so full of turmoil, right now I am dreaming with you of butterflies.........they are beautiful!
Thanks hun
Hugs
