I am a little girl with big dreams
Even though I am turning 50
Even though most of my hair is turning gray
Even though new wrinkles are
Being possessive
And the old ones want to stay
Each of my wrinkles
Reminds me
Still
I am a little girl with big dreams
I see my dreams as stars in the sky
I see my dreams as birds fly
I see many dreams come true
I see some fall through
Each of my dreams that dies
I make a wish for another
To come to life
Each of my dreams reminds me
I am a little girl with big dreams
My dreams bring life to my mind
My dreams make nights brighter
And days shine
My dreams are the food for my soul
My dreams fill the sadness holes
My dreams make me realize
Who I am and what I still want to be
I am a little girl with big dreams
I celebrate my life
And each moment reminds me
I am a little girl with big dreams.
Why do I feel sad
Why do I feel sad
When
You don't listen to me
Why...
Then I asked myself
The true myself
The answer is...
I really don't spend time
To know you
I do spend time
To create you
My creation is
Just a fantasy
To serve my own purpose
But it is not the true you
But if...
I would have spent time
Knowing you
Rather then creating you
Life would have been different
Now I realize
Reality hurts...only
When
My own fantasy
Takes control of my life.

Author: Pum Sandhu When people read Pum’s poetry, they are struck by its simplicity and stark truth. Pum writes about big ideas like courage, love, power, self-knowledge. But she uses basic images and words to convey these ideas. A small boat tossed in an ocean becomes a symbol of courage. A reflection in a mirror becomes a moment of questioning identity. Her poems gain power through simple repetition of words or rhythmically pulsing phrase. Two of her ebooks ‘the hoping game’ and ‘Courage is Me” are available on http://breezgreetings.com/ To print your own Free Greetings Cards - by Pum http://breezgreetings.com/ Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Pum_Sandhu |
