i do not know
why life is a fireplace
where you kindle your dreams
only to rise from the chimney
and join the sky

It's always "Why not?" I don't ask anymore, nor do I harbor dreams..........

Painful analogy, but accurate.

:) Gracias LP.

RUTH, maybe dreams harbor you.

It only hurts if you laugh Ina. Come here and I'll tickle you a little.

Fire and ash, my kind of poem.

I like the notion of dreams harbouring me. There is also the possibility that our world may be a giant hologram.

You're in your element!
