Hopes & Dreams
Lightning, then the hail,
rain. Then the sun,
the water shines
and the rainbow comes.
Forward ever searching
for ties that bind and redeem
truth
in hopes and dreams.
Not without opposition
to live you must survive
the trail was growing cold
when I came back to life
ashes to ashes, dust to dust
the calling is upon you
when you must
forge a raging stream
with your hopes and dreams
Saddled up, set to ride
with all manner of forces
at my side
with every intention
to make a scene
with all my hopes and dreams
Given the garden
with free will as a task
and the posing
of a question
is peace and love
too much to ask?
Forward, ever searching
peering into the unseen
holding
to our hopes and dreams.
