In an attempt to break away from my "norm" of humorous blogging, I decided that about once a year I should post something of a more serious nature. This blog, originally posted in September, 2006 was my first attempt at doing so.

This is one of my favorite poems (that I've written) because it reflects life so well, especially my life. Please do not copy this or use it anywhere seeing as it's copy written and all, I'd hate to see anyone die---... I mean fined, or something like that for using it. Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys!
Dreams©
Dreams, sweet dreams.
As I lay me down to sleep,
My head gets filled with many things.
Thoughts that make my blood to run, my heart to pound, my hands to numb.
Thoughts that make the heavens ring, worlds collide, the angels sing.
Am I to believe that this is all a dream?
A life of love, of hope, and peace.
A fairy tale that can't come true,
A lie my heart has bought in to.
Oh how I wish I knew.
But there must be more to this life,
More then hopeless pain and strife.
A purpose for which I'm here,
Perhaps to love, to help, to share.
I do believe it's coming clear,
The moon is setting the dawn is near.
Maybe this is all a dream,
As we wait on true life's eve.
For soon we'll awaken from this sleep,
And start our lives eternally.
But for now we slumber on this eve,
Trusting that God will give us dreams, sweet dreams.
Written by,
Ben Richardson
