Illusive Dreams
Carol Davidson 1954 (Virginia)
With reality morphing into fractured vision
of ideas lost in shifting dimensions,
I ride the broadening back of indecision
down pathways endlessly changing direction
to trip over my elusive dreams.
About this poem
Perhaps this is about my emotional instability during stressful times in my life, of which there have been many. But no matter how anxious or confused I become, God always leads me back to the path He has set out for me. I find my joy, my ultimate hope in Him.
