[bodytext] => An apparition appeared before me, in the dead of night We have far to go and much to see, before the morning light Why do you wish I join you, I do not understand This ghostly figure urged me follow, as she took me by the hand You will know why when I show you, but right now we must depart There are so many places, I almost know not where to start We are off to see your life, as it was back then to now Take my hand and come with me and I will show you how I tried voicing my objection, but she bid me not converse Time seemed to slow abruptly then started running in reverse My life began to flash before me, right before my eyes The good the bad the very sad and yes the truth and lies I saw Me in my school yard, a young Lad of nine or ten I saw the faces of my many friends - friends from way back then We chased each other madly, up and down the school yard hill Laughing at each others antics until we've had our fill We moved on then to when I'm older, fifteen would be my guess When I felt that all was vital and would settle for none less I believed in nothing or no one unless it could be seen When everything was black or white and nothing in between Again a shift and I'm a soldier, fighting in a war While Bullets fly and people die and still they ask for more I could see my country needed me and I was glad to go Coming home was better far than anyone will ever know Then It was that I awoke and I sat up straight in bed It did not seem to be a dream but I thought it real instead I scanned my room for any sign to show she had been there And on my dresser lay a lock of her lovely golden hair [comments] => 4 [counter] => 150 [topic] => 14 [informant] => jsringo [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [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. ©
