I thought both poems (although I'm definitely a fan of "To Dream") were great insights. You asked if people would like to hear the background. I for one would love to. I love the transcendence that poetry offers. It can mean so much to so many people. But I also love knowing what the author's meaning/inspirations/thoughts/feelings were. Thanks again!

I have a great limerick story for you... I'm in my Suburban with 8 cub scouts (all 9-10 years old)(I have 9 seatbelts...remember), and they are driving me crazy with all their bounciness. I suggest the license plate game, no takers. I suggest the letter, then number game, no takers. I say "lets tell a story, and I'll start it" no takers. I suggest we make up a limerick. One of the boys asks what that is, and I explain that how the lines need to rhyme. He asks if he can go first. I answered that he could go right ahead. He says "There once was a man named Enos..."

Both you and Me Ra have that, your being real and allowing people to see deeper than the surface. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, your words. I like the weekly feature Idea......a weekly poem from Brian. Nice. I love it and I love your vulnerability.

That is a gift you've got there... thank you for blessing us with your beautiful words. I can hardly write a blog comment without stressing about it, much less put my deepest fears, struggles, and happiness into words that just sound like art..... More, please! :) Wow!
