Cadence of Dreams

My dreams tend to be recurring dreams. They consist of my going fromplace to place in a collage of real vicinities that I have visitedi.e. pastresidences, learning institutions, libraries, retail stores, and vacationsto name a few. The poems included herein follow this pattern and areexpressed with varying degrees of the five senses as well as intellect withbalanced rhythmic flow. The meter of traditional and nontraditionalpoetic forms is utilized for this flow; hence, the title, Cadence Of Dreams,which I believe to be apropos. Furthermore, the poems of Cadence Of Dreams give a snapshot of myexperiences and wisdoms throughout life. Youll find that meals andnature tend to predominate the subject matterboth are near and dearto my heart-of-hearts. They call to my mind a quote from the naturalistJohn Muir (1838 to 1914):The power of imagination makes us infinite. It is my preference to believe that the passage of pieces of my imaginationto you stirs your imagination. Thus, we live on . . .
