I would have given this a six if I had any left my dear friend.
This one you posted speaks to my heart. It reminds me of the year 2014, when I was pondering on the idea of writing my story. I had so many doubts, but with His blessing, He gave me the wisdom and courage to do it. I know He still gives me that spark I need to continue my dream. He is the one that guided me here on FanStory where it all began. I feel truly blessed. If I could give one bit of advice to a person... it would be to follow their dream. If they truly want it, then they should have faith and go get it.
Thank you for sharing this. I love it!
Always your fan,
Shana :)

I think you've definitely found your vocation dear girl, and you're very good at it. success is all relative, I am devoid of ambition, I just like to write and share, the rest is in God's hands. Thanks again dear

Comment from jack silver

Exceptional

If faith has legs to walk on roofs
'twill always seize its goal;
but you will never soar (to new) heights
while sitting on a pole.

A dream remains confined to thought
a seed locked in a box.
Don't let it die, just grasp that dream --
'cause time's(,) contained in clocks.

Very well written and I look forward to reading more.

From
Jack

Comment from Lucian Carter

Excellent

This is a well written poem. It's nicely composed. I like how you express faith in a strong way without being preachy, judgmental, or blunt. Not every one can do that.

Beyond that the poem itself is somewhat "dreamy," just like it's subject matter. That's some really nice style.

Love it. Beautiful as always Roy. Dream your dreams and reach for the sky and go after them. If GOD say it's yours then it is yours. Have faith and believe it.

I love this. The hardest thing in life I think is overcoming inertia. Then, of course, the problem of not following through with your dreams is the thoughts later on - what if? I wish I had...If only...etc. I read a book once called Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers, Ph.D. It's a self-help book and I found it at a time when I was quite vulnerable. I took her advice and have found I am capable of many more things than I thought I was. Your poem says the same thing to me. Thank you for your wise words. Marge

"But have you heard that still small plea, that rustles in the trees?" Don't we all hear that all the time my friend? The tragedy is we don't focus for lack of faith; wonderful reminder in your reflections to believe in oneself; thank you.

This was very nice. Great ending and the rhythm is spot on. I enjoyed your musings on dreams, and you are right, you have to get out there and make it happen if you want your dream to become a reality. Thanks, lovely writing, Helen.

I enjoyed this poem very much. The message about time not being infinite is a very good reminder as to why we should go after or dreams while we can. I also liked the imagery of floating through the leaves. Overall it flowed nicely. Good job.

Hi, Roy. Your poem is lovely. It reads smoothly and somehow allows the reader to roam as their eyes traverse the page. Dreams are good. We all need them. I'm still dreaming of Heaven.
One day, with Christ's help, I'll get there.
