Seeing My Dreams.

Goldfinch60



I look up into the night sky,

The stars shining down on me.

And as I look at each star,

I see my dreams.

  • Comment from author about the poem: If people ask me what is my favourite piece of music I find it is impossible to answer as I like so many pieces of music, I can't even say what my favourite genre of music is so I always come up with the glib answer, "The piece of music I am listening to at the moment". Saying that though if ever I had to go to that Desert Island with only eight records Brahms Symphony No 1 would be amongst them. (For our US friends "Desert Island Discs" is a UK radio programme which invites well know people to say which eight discs they would take to a desert island. This programme has been running since 1942.)

    A fine write Gold. Aww, why no-one take any of my recordings of me singing?! heehee.
    Well, maybe they do. A desert island is the best place for them, cos it's me singing on every disc! lol.

      Thanks Orchi, I am on a different desert Island though.

        Orchi on a desert(ed) Island - now there's a thought.

      • onepauly

        illuminated for sure

      • Michael Edwards

        Brahms would always be in my top eight - love the write and the music choice.

        • Goldfinch60

          Thank you Michael. Brahms Symphony number one is special to me, I have listened to it and enjoyed it for over sixty years and every time I listen I hear something new.

          Beautifully done, as always:)

          • Goldfinch60

            Thank you Resa, most kind.

          • BRIAN & ANGELA

            Thanks ANDY ~ I always listen to DID (generally a recorded version !) it gives a real insight in to a person's psyche ! Like MICHAEL I would include a BRAHMS and a BEETHOVEN and of course a MOZART ~ Yesterday (BEATLES) Welcome to my World (Jim Reeves) How Great Thou Art (Beverly Shea) and two more ! Brahms' music is celestial so it is a perfect accompaniment to your elegant poem ~ Yours BRIAN

            Music like this gracing an island of dreams !!! - ah - lovely Goldi.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Fay for your kid words.

            • Lorna

              This is the perfect little poem Andy....... made me cry.

              • Goldfinch60

                Thank you very much Lorna. Any emotions drawn from words is wonderful.

                Nice poem.

                ...my record would be Sheherazade...

                • Goldfinch60

                  Thank you Eugene.

                  Good choice.

                • Accidental Poet

                  Short, but very well written Andy. I have the same problem trying to pick favorite music pieces. I tried to make a list a year or two ago, thinking it would have maybe 20 or so songs. The list grew to over 300 songs.

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Thank you AP. It is an impossible task isn't it.

                    • Accidental Poet

                      It is, but none the less a labor of love.
