Default another fun creative output for us...

Write a short poem. Here are your restrictions:
Each verse should have about 4 lines, the first line being "I am a dreamer".
As many verses as you like!

Ok... go!

*************************************
I am a dreamer.
I dream in many colors.
Rainbows spill out onto my pillow each night.
The sun eats them for fuel every morning.

I am a dreamer.
When I look into the mirror, I see a mother.
When I close my eyes, I hear children giggling.
Someday.

I am a dreamer.
I dream of things larger than myself.
I scare myself with my ambition.
Nothing drives away fear like hopes and dreams.....

because I am a dreamer.

Default Dreamer of Dreams

I am a dreamer of dreams
dreams of the day and night
dreams filled with wonder and magic
with tears and excitement

My dreams of the day
are of the things that may be
at least in the wonders of
my imagination

I can allow myself
the freedom to create
any possibility of life,
love, completeness.

The dreams of night
are my fears, my unexpected
desires, my wishes yet
unfulfilled.

All keep me patiently
waiting
for the future
about to happen.

Mia: I have been thinking about this poem since you posted, not sure whether to write it out, then post, or create as I was typing. That is what I did (type as I create) and today's result is much different than yesterday's would have been. I think that is interesting! Good idea, Mia!!

I am a Dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
a dream to see the world
the world through another's eyes

I am a dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
a dream to see the sky
the sky through another's eyes

I am a dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
a dream to see the waters
the waters through another's eyes

I am a dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
a dream to see the love that is there
the love that is there but remains unfound

I am a dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
a dream that one day the dreams will come true

I am a dreamer
a dreamer with a dream
the dream that one day it will come
a dream that all men will be created equal


okay that ended up really weird I just wrote it as I typed... thanks for the fun idea Mia
