Dreamers

Some of us are dreamers, we dare to believe.
We know that hope inspires and lifts the clouds.
We take the leap, though we fear the fall, that is where our courage lies.
We see the outcome as what it could become and not what it's been.
We forge ahead despite the darkness overshadowing the light.
We are passionate and powerful, yet fearful and fragile.
We dare to dream because WE exist!
We are alive, a life, a force, a spirit, a being.
We dream in color.
We dream with feeling and on purpose.
We are not afraid to believe in the possibilities.
So we paint the picture, dance the dance, sing the song, fight the battle, live the life, love the lover, feel the joy, welcome the pain, accept the challenge, run the race, walk the walk, talk the talk, and we feel the power!
DREAM ON MY FRIENDS....DREAM ON!!!




I wrote this in Kansas City after I'd gotten back from my 25th year reunion from Washington High School in KCK. I was inspired by seeing people I shared a common bond with. In high school, I was afraid to love people fully for fear of being hurt. I hope I'm never afraid to love again!
