It's Not Always Just A Dream

Amazing how time waits for no man, how the sun rises and the moon sets, the months march forward and the years fly by and I, standing here in my own little moment am part of it all.

The present, the past, the future, they're all inside of me, all holding my face in their hands and gazing into my eyes, saying, "Take me, I'm yours!"

So I do.

I have learned to embrace them all, to love them and hold them close to my heart and lay my head upon their chest to hear the beating of each heart. Snuggling in close so I can feel the breath of their inspiration upon my face and the warmth of their fingers close upon mine.

Leaping false barriers in a single bound I imagine myself the super hero of the mystics, sitting at Merlin's feet to learn the wisdom of the mages who came before, dancing in daring dervishes with Rumi, or walking with a Jewish Rabbi along the shores of a long dead sea. My dreams carry me to places I have dared to dream of.

I am a child by this universe's standards and so I dare to do childish things and free myself from the burdens of man's somber thoughts tonight. One moment at a time I discover the wonders of being and so each one becomes a revelation worth the risk.

"To dream the impossibile dream....." It's not always just a dream.
