Dreams Sought

I love this poem, Audrey. It is very deep and thought-provoking.

How did I miss this beautiful poem. I am glad to finally have read it. Happy Holidays Audrey, I hope all is well. jamie

Poetry is the vehicle of dreams. Often there is no way to describe thoughts, emotions, dreams except through poetry. You have skillfully written such a beautiful, ethereal piece.

Hi Audrey,

"Flutters and sifts its way through

into that place of timelessness

cupped in my hand."

Beautiful! I love the imagery.

I'm so into dreams, as I remember mine vividly. Loved this!

Very nice poem Audrey.

The one unexpected joy that I have discovered in presenting in this forum, is that others read our poems and discover something that you (as the writer) did not know was there. It makes the poems living pieces of work.....great job again audrey!

Very good. Dreams would be difficult to describe, opaque I would think, but you have done it well, delightfully.

Beautiful Audrey! I still dream a lot, some i toss as soon as i wake, others i want to cup in my hand....

Hi Audrey~I just love this poem about our dreams. It's amazing the things our minds come up with in our dreams. I am a huge dreamer and many of them have been inspirations for some of my poetry. Voted up and hit many buttons.

Hi my friend your poetic writing style and creativity shine in this masterpiece, it's one of the best i have read from you and that's saying something because i have read some very awesome poems that you have written. Well done !

Vote up and more !

I'm glad I stopped by and read this - Absolute fantastic imagery and creativity sure to entertain any young one - very nicely done - !

I love the idea of dreams fluttering through our hands as we try to hold on to them...like butterflies....so beautiful, yet only more so as we let them go!

Yes Audrey--thanks--sometimes the internal / external dichotomy, WITHIN the presentation of the poem, can get a little garbled. And I agree with you about the surrealistic aspect of the poem.

I have no other words to describe this poem but poetic voted awesome

What a beautifully expressed poem. You are rapidly becoming one of my favorites : ) i love your writing style, your diversity, and your creativity. Thumbs up and sharing this one.

A very great play with words.

Voted up and beautiful. Daydreams are a great part of life. Passing this on.

I read this as to be daydreaming, remembering days and moments from when we were younger, sometimes when we are just relaxing memories just sneak up on us unexpectedly, then we sigh for that is all they are now, just memories.

Personifying "dreams" as a persona that acts independently of the "dreamers" that are profoundly affected by it is a bold move indeed!

There is a kind of dislocate implicit in this scenario that I had a little difficulty reconciling with the INTEGRATION implicit in the imagery itself. I may be "reading in" or expecting something outside your intent. I''m unsure on this. What do you think?

We are dreamers, we dream all our life. I loved this poetry, deep and profound.
