Dreaming

















Waking from a fitful sleep
the dream, like dry crust
falls to my consciousness

images once bleary became clear
then memories congeal
allowing me to examine

and reflect upon the dream.
The more difficult path lies ahead
taking images and making them real

finding appropriate steps
to intervene where necessary.
Last night my dream showed my house

leaking, water dripping from the ceiling
I wondered what could it mean
now I understand someone in my house is crying,

sadness overwhelms her soul
fear about being abandoned and alone
needs reassurance that her world

will not fall apart again
the message is clear
compassion and patience
towards one I hold dear.
