I find myself in happy joyous dreams
Walking on the Pebbles with bare feet
Children took their shoes off by the Stream
The water clear and warm in summer heat
The Dentdale grass is sweet for hungry sheep
The rippled water plays with each sunbeam
The water clear and warm in summer heat
I picked up pebbles in my hand so sweet
The colour’s almost never what it seems
Back onto the Pebbles with bare feet
Hear the lark ascending as it greets
Happiness can never be consumed
I lose myself in nightmares and in dreams.
I find myself in plans and joyous schemes
Walking on the pebbles with bare feet
The water’s clear and warm with summer heat
Live without fear

I can live very well without you
I feel less lonely now
I can be who i am discreetly
Safe from your u
ndertow
I like to have space for.my dreaming
And growing pink cyclamen.
I shall nourish my garden freely
And write with my ancient blue pen.
I like to meet friends in a cafe
Talk with no critical ear.
I loved you before i knew you
But now i can live without fear
Sanity is madne…
Sanity is madness put to good uses; waking life is a dream controlled.
George Santayana, Interpretations of Poetry and Religion (1900)
See you in my dreams

A relationship
Sometimes we may believe we are having a relationship with someone,maybe a friendship or love affair.As time passes one or other party may become more and more critical of the other.This may possibly be for good reason.Or what at first one person saw as ideal.wonderful,perfection in the other is revealed [or not] to have been a fantasy.On the gap between the real and the ideal being noticed complaints are made and anger or rage is felt.
If people can tolerate the painful gap between the real and the ideal then a true relationship may develop.More likely the idealizing partner will break off and seek perfection elsewhere in a new person. In truth there never was a real relationship.One person was simply caught up in the other’s fantasy life.In the real world no-one is entirely good,perfect or our dream lover.This illusion is very painful to give up.
.Easier to believe that one day we will meet Prince or Princes Charming.. our other half We are like almost blind people wandering around just seeing bits of the other.We have our own world but is it a shared one?After all we are all human beings and we do share existential loneliness and even dread.Hunting for someone to fit a pattern in our mind means we are not living in shared reality…it’s too painful.
My spelling is disimproving .. reed my dreem
I wunder if my speling is any better twoday?Lately I’ve had som weerd and uncliched dreems.In one I was in a procession of Oxford Dons.All the uther peeple were waring fancy gowns and hats.I joyned on the end but I was only waring an old bayge trench coat.
Then I saw them going into a Chapel for a servis.I saw big stayned glass windows…then I thought to miself,
Y am I heer?
Upon witch I got up and walked owt and left those posh and famos peeple in their.
In their what?
There glory and fame.
The man at the front of the procession had given me a very meening full look as he passed me.I am shure I have no ideea what that meens……if he loves me he’s not mutch help in a dreem is he?
Duzz it meen I will meet some famous man soon?If so I’d better pull up my sox and get a move on ,thowgh better not count my chikkens befour they are hatched.Life is full of littel surprizes like still beeing alive in the mornings wenn I wake up..How sweet to c the son shining in the sky and the snow falling onto the grownd so I can bild a snowman and get a tan as well.
Now tell me how manny misstakes I have got in my spelling today?I have managed moor than yesterday so I am mayking gud prowgress and will soon get banned by the Ministry for Educashion.Then I shall be famos at last and meet that man from my dreem somewear I have never travelled wear ur I’s have there silence…thank you e.e. cummings.I luv ewe.
