Dream And Believe (In Life's Dimensions)

  

Charcoal images take the form of 3-D

when your soul believes in things

the center of the eye cannot see.

Those colors shift into vivid images

of those childhood fantasies

that allows crystal clear waters

to break through the psychological dam.

The sudden rush flows through the veins

cleansing the ashes from a tangled soul.

Faith is finally free to roam and flourish

on the sacred land of golden hay.

The fault line to your soul shifts the ground

and the sand of time begins to fall

the way nature always foretold.

Rain washes over the foundation

and fills the vacant cracks with

the missing nutrients to make life healthy.

In the blink of an eye the colors of life

turn into the rainbow path of eternal euphoria

and now those childhood dreams

don’t seem so foolish after all.

Rock n Roll Cowboy,
"Dream And Believe"
"Charcoal Images take the form of 3-D when your soul believes in things the center of the eye cannot see."
We are the soul of our childhood. The same individual person still lives within each of our
respective bodies. As adults with responsibilities and everything that entails our vision is affected.
I do identify with what you are saying in your poem.
This is beautiful: "Faith is finally free to roam and flourish on the sacred land of golden hay." This sounds like permission to dream and ponder.
"Childhood dreams don't seem so foolish after all.
Do we get lonely for the child we were? Miss that wide eyed person just open to the world?
You really wrote a real winner of a poem here.
Blessings,
Kathy

Funny isn't it? How our little dreams as kid comes back to us...I have to laugh at my own. lol A nice piece of work, Cowboy Dale.

You have painted a vivid array of colorful images in my mind. What transpires as our childhood dreams flow is amazing, and you have captured this in a constructed, yet surreal way. This piece is brilliantly written. Nice work!

As an old hippie I love this,lots of color, lots of rainbows, this is esoteric pure mixed with Pink Floyd dreams,Indian mysticism and all that goes with it....
A fine poem, well written

I really like this one you wrap up the ending in a prolific way. Love the photo that goes along with this one too...it is so fitting.

The last 4 lines really got me! I guess because i never thought my dreams were worth having....felt they didnt hold much weight for me as an adult, but now that i am doing what i dream i realize they are valid, life is the realization of dreams.....they can come true, you have to make it happen sometimes...:)

I came down in the middle of the night to nurse a belly ache and I thought I would squeeze in a review or two. Then I came across this masterpiece! This is the work of a fellow "old soul", I would love to see you publish this someday, it's one of my favorites and I think just reading it made my tummy feel better :)

Im so glad this one caught my eye, love the title too!
