Description Dreams and wishes, the spirit within...
Such are the things we are made of.
No matter how far, even beyond reach,
Still... we dream. We hold on. We never let go.

Foolish? Perhaps; many would say so.
Would such stop me from perching here?
Wishing, even when knowing it cannot be?
Dreaming, when each morning I must wake?

You know the answer, without a word.
This one will never lose her grasp,
Never turn away from her dream.
For that dream is her heart.

So yes, I shall always be here,
In this spot, this close to dreams,
This near to wishes of the heart,
Even if yet always the bridge and never the river.

For in my dreams, in my wishes,
I may be that river, and thee my naiad
In that place where we are not two but one,
In the place where we have become... *us*.

Beautiful picture! You’ve really put a lot of meaning into this.

 

Dreams and Wishes…

It’s a very deep poem which has got me thinking a little. If I’m right with what you’re talking about… I see why you describe it as a bridge over a river. And I describe it as the eye of a terrible storm. That’s what makes it so beautiful – any message in a picture or story can be depicted by a unique analogy

Thank you, yes it is a very emotional piece for me.

That is one of the nice things about art, is that everyone can bring to it their own perspective, their own experiences. In this case, the subject isn't actually that one which you and I have discussed at some length. It is in fact about another person, who means a great deal to me but whom I cannot be with.

Oh... that's sad. I suppose the only thing I can say is I hope it works out well for you both, but that's only because I don't know much else to say. It's okay, you don't need to tell me any more. I've had friends who I said goodbye to and many years later felt like making up to them. It's always sad to say goodbye to a friend, and you're not the only one to make a picture over losing a friend *sad smile*

She is not gone... just not "here."

And thank you, my friend.

This is such a beautiful scene, love the bridge. The fairy looks amazing, as does the water. It looks real and love the reflective.
