[hometext] => Dreams are like stars...you may never touch them, but if you follow them they can lead to your destiny...
[bodytext] => Jacob dreamt and a ladder came on earth, opening such a door We can’t climb without a ladder; try a goal, reasonable, to soar You cannot ascend to success dressed in the costume of failure Christ’s robe of Righteousness graciously covers to adore It’s not the climb, it’s the positioning of the ladder that matters Though it’s best to travel light, in case there could be a splatter It is never crowded at the top but, perhaps, lonely for sure Those who’ve made it for quality in life avoid distraction’s lure So many crosses of plumblines, step on the rungs of opportunity Failed regrets can prepare a plateau to win another possibility Many climb a proverbial plumbline, or ladder’s rung, all wrong Courage is a ladder on which all other virtues mount with song The wise prudently lower to climb, respectfully against a fall Many reach the top to find the ladder’s against the wrong wall Reaching too far, one can get stabbed before ascension’s climb Considering, indomitably, I shall not wane in faith or resign [comments] => 4 [counter] => 288 [topic] => 14 [informant] => Lilly-Quill [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DreamsandWishes )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
