Dream
And in that dream
Transform into a bird
From the safety of your bed
Stretch your wings
And fly free having flings
With the breeze which lives so high
In the serene sky
See it all
Feel it all
And if you happen to fall
Heed the call of determination
And rise through the pain in dedication
Of freedom
Creating your own kingdom
Splashing it with the perfume of laughter
Perfume of Happiness
Perfume of peace
Perfume of life
Perfume of riches
Fortify it with a charm to battle poverty
Pain
Child sicknesses
Child abuse
Sadness
Arresting all negativity
It is your dream to build
It is your nation to rule
It is your thoughts to form
Form it
Or leave it
Life is like a basket
Weave it strong and its durability pays
I choose to dream

Dreams can be poison.

Yes, I agree with you. Dreams can be medicinal poison which can elevate status. I take in doses everyday H because it does not kill. When it turns to greed, then its deadly nature takes effect. Let’s dream positively sweet H, and we will not know problems. Blessings.

Thanks for your reply. Nice thoughts. H in little doses? That can be very nice, but you need a great self discipline. H.

And rise through the pain in dedication” Those words really reflect each other and almost become a hidden mantra within the poem.
