Are around you now
The sky (like eyes) so blue
The clouds floated by,
Then, this beautiful night
And all your dreams seem new

It can pass in a second
But a smile remains
And a memory...so dear
You know that little things
Can mean so much
And everything seems clear

The arms of the world
A force that will stay
Deep within your soul
Like butter you melt
From the heat of the sun
And you're free to lose control

It's a once in a lifetime...
The first touch of a hand
Or a glance from across the room
But it lights up your mind,
Twinkles your eye,
And sets your heart abloom

The arms of the world
A light that will shine
To take away the dew
So, just close your eyes
And breathe it in...
And know that dreams come true. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 244 [topic] => 14 [informant] => trippychick [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 19 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DreamsandWishes )

The arms of the world

The sky (like eyes) so blue
The clouds floated by,
Then, this beautiful night
And all your dreams seem new

It can pass in a second
But a smile remains
And a memory...so dear
You know that little things
Can mean so much
And everything seems clear

The arms of the world
A force that will stay
Deep within your soul
Like butter you melt
From the heat of the sun
And you're free to lose control

It's a once in a lifetime...
The first touch of a hand
Or a glance from across the room
But it lights up your mind,
Twinkles your eye,
And sets your heart abloom

The arms of the world
A light that will shine
To take away the dew
So, just close your eyes
And breathe it in...
And know that dreams come true.

first of all I like how you put clouds in the bar with us that night, there might as well have been, everything is foggy. My mind did light up, my eye did twinkle and maybe even my heart did some blooming...
awwwe...
my poem with this title would be much much different!!! But much of this, the "free to lose control", the "like butter you melt" ,oh yeah that's all the same!!!
Great one trip!

Beautiful write.
And I'm glad you ended on such an optimistic note :)

'It can pass in a second
But a smile remains
And a memory...so dear
You know that little things
Can mean so much...'
Wonderful words.

Well now! I have an awful lot to say about this, of course!

It's beautiful, Trippy! As is the girl for whom it is dedicated. I am, quite delighted, to discovered that she snuck in her without telling me. (Funny thing.... I had noticed the name 'girltrascended' and had thought the it sounded very much like her!). So... now... YPDC has us in our entirity. How very cool!!!

The flow of this is lovely... it... kind of carries you along and gives off this wonderful, warm feeling. My favorite part, of course, is the last verse... you know, as well as anyone, that I'm living in those words right about now. And Meg, hon... I swear I believe them as much as Trippy does... for me, for you, for all of us.

Thinking I was a fool to not have gone along that night and wondering what could possibly have been more important,
SNM

Enchanting, and the fact that you wrote it for someone else...someone special appeals to me in a way I can't describe.
Very uplifting..great Write!

A lovely dedication, and one which seems so vivid when read out.
