Ph: Prayer: Hope: Dreaming Of You Poem by Brian Johnston

Ph: Prayer: Hope: Dreaming Of You



Here I sit once again,
I'm dreaming of you,
Even though I'm told
(Frequently) you don't exist.

You're my fantasy love,
(Stranger to this world)
With two parted lips
Waiting for me (to be kissed) .

We cohabit one heart
So tight are we bound
(No jealousy there) ,
In love choose to serve others.

We accept that our lives
In service to Christ
Are open to all….
Who are sisters and brothers!

We're both fine with the fact,
Our dreams come second,
God's plan for our lives,
We always try to put first.

Our passion's to channel,
Let God's blessings flow,
Through work of our hands,
To hearts of those feeling cursed.

Dear God grant that this dream
Becomes flesh indeed,
Our lives tenderly
Merge in love to serve many.

But if in Your Will, love
Never comes to my side,
Pray, quiet my doubts…
On days in fact I have any.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

If you would like to give this poem a rating, please do so in a comment that is separate from your regular comment if you leave one. Many poets, including myself, have been experiencing visits from hard to identify PH members who like to damage other's poem's ratings with illegal multiple votes of 1.0 and make a mockery out of normal voting. You voting in a comment field helps me to protect your rating of my poem which they wish to destroy. I know that this is a bit of extra work for you, but believe me it is appreciated.

Poet's Notes:
Custer's Last Stand? Must this perfect dream die for the poet to find the love of a real, flesh and blood woman? Must Jealousy and Distrust always be the handmaidens of Love (whispering in Love's ear) in our fallen world? Say it isn't so!

Hi Serban, I know you're not the only one who feels that way. This poem documents deeply held personal convictions however that I am bringing out into the open, in part to get feedback, in part to express sadness that a woman I care deeply about also thinks that my head is on backwards. So is your comment because you believe to act on feelings with a bias toward what I believe God's desire is for my life is wrong, or is belief in God just wrong? I will discuss this privately, but not publicly if you desire.

Love is itself God. Let love flow in our dream.

A love borne out of divinity, definitely can satisfy the soul! A feeling of being resigned to the inevitable lies just beneath the surface, a gentle sadness with a prayer to calm doubts if any arise. Great write, Brian. Thank you, RoseAnn
