I Am But a Dreamer

I am but a dreamer and in my dreams I play where I live so happily writing them my way inside my illusions where I know I belong whistling a joyful tune as I go along Like a little spirit I venture on the breeze skipping in the gentle wind doing what I please with the rising sun I dance wrapped inside his charms across the golden morning sky twirling in his arms I can climb a mountain or live among the trees sail in a silver sailboat on the seven seas I can draw a moonlit night ride on a bright moonbeam and swim among the diamonds in a velvet stream I am but a dreamer there's nothing in my way living in the place I love loving everyday maybe it's a fairytale but that's all right by me I'm the master of my dreams where I wander free No one there can tell me what is wrong or right following what's in my heart I live in the light happy in my dream world that's where I choose to stay in the world where I belong writing dreams my way

Robin, if I had dreams as lovely as yours, I would probably never wish to wake. Wouldn't it be grand to "ride on a bright moonbeam and swim ang the diamonds." Send some of these incredible dreams my way! Love, Carolyn

This is so beautiful I am adding this to my favorites. It is nice to know that I am not the only dreamer and that someone else thinks it is okay to live my dreams my way. Smiles from Lolita~ looking forward to reading more of your writing!

Have you ever swung on a star? Carried moon beams home in a jar? Or are you better off as you are? Or would you rather be a fish! Congrad's on your win! Robin girl. Light & Love

I find dreamers to be the most beautiful people I know. We must never stop dreaming, it makes us who we are. This write has captured my heart with its magic - the magic of reality. Sounds ironic, but if you think about it, it's true. A reflection of you, talented poetess and dear friend. Dream on and keep writing. Love & hugs, Shar xoxo
