The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of

THE STUFF DREAMS ARE MADE OF

Random thoughts,
unsolved challenges ~
all melding
into mad
-ness of midnight cinema ~
a double feature!

GISELE

Stolen dreams
are being redeemed
at long last.
She said yes
to those big blue eyes, taking
her baby girl home.

I read a Washington Post article online yesterday that has kind of stuck with me, about a nurse who adopted an infant who didn’t have any hospital visitors for five months. You can read about it here.

Love, So Elusive

LOVE, SO ELUSIVE

Where’s the place where lovers escape,
and where plans of the heart take shape?
Where is undying love supremely crowned?
Is it found just in dreams?

It’s as I sleep, tucked in my bed,
that’s where I dream of being wed.
Where’s this undying love deemed to be found?
Sound asleep, in my dreams.

 OF WISHES AND DREAMS

To no longer be alone
a midsummer night’s dream.
A family to call my own,
to no longer be alone.
This dream of mine, I’ve made known,
casting my wish on full moon’s beam.
To no longer be alone
a midsummer night’s dream.

Is This Heaven?

IS THIS HEAVEN?

You built it
and it drew me in.
Your belief
in things not
seen, inspired me to hold on
to you in my dreams.
