In Dreams We Wander

LOUISE QUINN 1944 (Waycross)

In dreams we wander, we sleep to free our
Soul from this confining shell. We soar
Through space and time with thought, our
Rocket that hurls us forth with lightning
Speed. We pursue what this fleshly prison
Can not give. We experience things that
Feed our souls, and browse libraries for
The astral traveler. We are more alive in
Our silent sleeping state than we are in
Our waking state. We learn through our
Experiences and grow with life's lessons.
We learn love, patience, and the most
Difficult, order.
