I dream of Sydney
tossing

rain
like

at
weddings.
I dream of Sydney

We’ve lived a lifetime
You and I
Far above the highest star
Our lives have joined
And meshed and twined
We’ve grown and laughed
And dreamed and dined
Hold my hand oh draw me near
Be close by, forever, dear
I loved you then, I love you still
Our love will bind us, it always will.

All my life I wished for you
On every falling shooting star
Oh I wished and prayed and dreamt
That in my life you’d walk right in
Now here you are, it’s you and me
You have my heart right in your palm
I prayed for you I did and then
You entered in and here you are
My wish and prayer and dreams came true
My dreams came true because of you

On the other side lies an unseen
Day
Beckoning hope and promising
Future
Of stars a-glitter and full moons;
Suns of gold and a whispering morn
Night separates here from there
Dark from light
A freezing winter from fall.
Dreams,
Transport me!
Carry me safely
Hold me tenderly
Deliver me to the other
Side.
A wish for you
A dream for me
I wish my love could be
Higher than the stars above
Whiter than the snow
Deeper than the roaring sea
So my feelings go
Everywhere I look for you
At every point I turn
I see your shining eyes
Looking back at me
I love you now
I love you then
I will always love you
So
I’ve been reading about some truly beautiful role models over at Mum C’s blog. It is so uplifting to read about courageous young women, and their hopes and dreams.
As life goes by, we can forget about dreams and aspirations, just trying to pay the bills and raising kids and keeping all the juggled balls in the air.
But dreams keep us alive! They give us something to live for.
We as women have so much to offer this world. Compassion, empathy, nurturing and just a femininity that we can truly own.
So I endeavor to own it, dream on and live big. Because I can!
My dreams flash back before my eyes
That strange illuminated abstract world
Of thoughts
Of feelings
Of ideas
Of life
I wonder what they mean
I ponder the reality
Of that which is not
Real at all
I consumed to ease my burdened heart
I traveled to take my pain away
I swam until I could no longer see the shore
I married, gave birth, I cried
I mothered, played games, I laughed
I hugged, made love, I lived
And to sooth my troubled soul
I wrote my dreams
To life
