Where shall I go
With this bag of dreams
I must choose steps
That will transport me
To the reality
Of an empty bag

Day Dreams
Floating
But going nowhere
On my river of dreams
It’s only by paddling I move
Forward
Cinquain
Dreams Do Come True
Hollywood streets paved with dreams
Where some stars shine bright
Grandson is livin’ his it seems
He’s walking those streets tonight
Syllabic Rhyme
My oldest grandson is a music artist in LA tonight to perform a show there on Friday. Tomorrow is his 25th birthday. He is so excited because he dreamed his whole life that someday he would go to LA and now he’s there for his birthday and to perform a show. I am so happy for him that his dream came true!
Bits and Pieces
Little things do matter
“Rome wasn’t built in a day”
Great things begin small
Senryu
“Great things are done by a series of small things brought together” -Vincent Van Gogh
Out of the Cocoon
Been there
Walking away
From that place I’ve tread
Looking for a new horizon
To rise
Unexpectedly right before me
With paths that lead upward
Promising a
Future

“I always get to where I am going by walking away from where I have been”. —Pooh
Tarry Time
New Year days in flight,
Flying away like fall leaves.
What is your vision?
Are your dreams anchored down,
To withstand the winds of time?
Tanka
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry Habakkuk 2:2-3
Fear’s Shadow
It came creeping
In the dark night of my soul
Fear over shadowed
Covering like a thick fog
I lay paralized
Frozen in its doubt and dread
Until a shaft of hope
Broke through the darkness bringing
Strenght to rise and overcome
Choka
“When you face fear it evaporates. Shadows cannot stand light. —LeAura Alderson
This quote by LeAura is very true.
And this poem I wrote today is written from one of my true experiences with fear. We must face our fears and when we do they will dissipate.
Shakespeare also said it well:
“Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.”
(This quote has also helped me to face fears many times in my life.)
