dreams
are like the seeds
of something wished
perhaps already done
and forgotten
or overlooked
or perhaps still waiting to become
sometimes
they stop
and gather
together
to become better acquainted
with their surroundings
like angels
looking
for the place in which
their purpose can be realized
to greatest effect
we see them hovering
seemingly caught
ensnared
just waiting
for the windsong
of a soul
to blow them to ground

What time is it, Mr Wolf? Seed time.
Gorgeous photos, Steven. Thanks.
Dreams, indeed, Steven. I enjoy the light and fluffy appearance of these seeds - squashed dandelion seeds to me.
The beauty of it all is what takes my breath away.
rachel - interesting. when i first saw these seeds caught on a prickly twig i thought they were lambswool. steven
hello elisabeth - milweed seeds caught after being blown out of the pod. steven
friko - i'm right there alongside you in that thought. steven
And I thought it was a feather...
Hundreds of pearlescent hearts, Steven. Thank you.
This poem is so multi faceted- it means so many things to me- of course I have copied it and put it right there, in front of me for an everyday fix. Really, this poem is so timely for me right now! For so many reasons!
Milk weed that looks like down or cashmere and gets to ride on a breeze ever so gently- and then snuggle down into the earth to germinate- what a lovely weed.
Hi, beautiful captures.. i really liked..
golden west - fur, wool, feather, seed. all surfacings with the same intention. the same understandings arise. steven
reya - phoosh! kundalini rush up the spine and through the top of my head. steven
linda sue what made this really special for me was that it's so late in the year. i think of the "season' for settling down to earth as passed. yet like me, it so very isn't. some seeds get caught on prickly branches and eventually the wind gets wind of this and pulls them off the sticking place and lets them go to ground. just like people. steven
hello my argentinian friend. i appreciate your comment. especially as your own work is so very good and clever. steven
Steven, this idea seems not unlikely at all...quite the opposite!
Dreams...like feather-winged angels, pearlescent hearts, whisper-soft butterflies, and tiny faeries. "Looking for the place in which their purpose can be realized."
The mysterious, gossamer wings of hope.
hi jo! when i'm thinking of unlikeliness it's more in awe than doubt. from your words i'd say we're understanding all of this in a very similar way! steven
