    Poem Commentary

    I believe that God is in charge of our lives, if we put our faith and trust in Him, He is our true destiny.

    DESTINY'S DREAM

    When I was but a child,
    Wondering what would be;
    Dreaming my wondrous dreams;
    Hoping, my future see.

    Watching a good movie;
    Staring, Hepburn... Tracey;
    Newspaper reporter;
    Was this what I would be?

    Dreams of foreign places,
    Filling my hopes and dreams;
    Knowing, a reporter,
    Was just the thing for me.

    Dreaming my noble dreams;
    A missionary, be?
    Maybe a pastor’s wife?
    Was this my destiny?

    Fell in love; married young;
    My dreams, I now forgot.
    This young man; all I need;
    Fulfilled my dreams a lot.

    God touched our willing hearts;
    To foreign field, He sent;
    Reaching out to the lost,
    Their sin sick souls, repent.

    Were all my dreams my choice?
    God watching over me?
    Fulfilling all my dreams?
    Or this my destiny?

    Thank you so very much, famous. Your comments are really an encouragement to me. I've kind of had a writers block of late. I think I'm ready to get back in. Thank you again.

    As I read this...I see you sitting by your window in the early morning light. Contemplating your existence during your hour of devotion. This poem is a gentle musing of good thoughts with God in the concentric circle. Lovely...and peaceful.

    I've not experienced that, Teardrops, but almost happened last year. The Lord, spared his life. Praise God! I don't know why, we get left here alone, but I do know that God is with us and we will join them soon.

    That is so very true, poett. It took me many years to learn that if I wanted peace in my life, I needed to go God's way.

    The past of dreams tied into destiny or not! A super concept slid in by meter and rhyme! Well done sis!
