Dreams Don’t Die

Originally posted on A writer & her adolescent muse:

“Life without dreaming is a life without meaning.” -Ritu Ghatourey
Dreams begin in the mind and heart of a person. They include one’s passions and desires and intense interests. They give one a glimmer of hope. As from above quote, they tend to give one meaning in life. Something worthwhile to pursue, and hopefully one day achieve.

So, in a nutshell, how can having a dream help a person?
• Provides hope
• A reason to get out of bed each a...

The Potentate

Lucifir came for a potentate bold.

He said “you have had power and wealth untold,

Now you must render me your immortal soul”.

The potentate sighed,

And made reply,

“My soul it died,

you will find nothing inside.

It perished long ago,

And vanished like the summer snow.

Once I had ideals,

and yearned to build utopia in green fields.

I have waded in much blood,

And sacrificed the weak for the common good.

My soul you had long ago.

I take your hand,

Now let us go”.

Labyrinth

I hear the minotaur roar,

And see the vampire soar.

Lost in the labyrinth of my mind,

Can I a way out find,

Via Ariadne’s thread,

Or must I remain in the land of the dead?

A place where the shadows forever fall,

And no birds call.

Sunset

I don’t often regret being blind. However sitting in a pub garden yesterday evening, as my friend Brian described the sun setting I felt a twinge of regret at my inability to watch the sun’s firey ball sink below the horizon.

Would that I could touch a sunset

Be wrapped in it’s fiery glow.

Would that I could see the sun set,

A sight I will never know.
