I have seen my dreams
As diamonds in the sky,
I have sought these dreams
And never wondered why;
I have raced the wind
And had it in my face,
I have followed rainbows
But never found their place;
Now I wonder
How I know–
As far I’ve come
I’ve farther to go;
I’m older now
Yet younger still,
In the end I’ll make it
I’m sure I will;
But even if Life ends–
And they’re still far from me;
At least my dreams were up there
Easy for me to see.
Thanks for the comment, Cubby!
Have you ever seen Mt. Rainier on a clear, sunset evening? That was the inspiration for the “diamonds in the sky”. A friend named Julie asked me to write a poem (that was my excuse to put pen to paper).
Simply beautiful.
