Path

What are your dreams?

Caught off guard

I found myself thinking of dreams I have for my children.

Yet they must dream for themselves. 

Just as I must dream for myself. 

What are my dreams? 

And how does one start dreaming 

For oneself when nothing comes to mind.

Maybe tonight when I fall asleep 

the nightly dreams will illuminate a path 

to a hope and a dream- 

from memories of the past 

to snapshots of today

to the future me.

Until then...

I pray that my dream finds me

and points the way.
