To Dream the Impossible Dream


I have amazing dreams
of flying with the geese,
to find a warmer clime
and winter there in peace.

The journey can be scary,
but oh so worth the try -
when you fly with the geese
you get to touch the sky.



Featured: I made a dream catcher
to hold on to my dreams.

I love dream catchers and yours is gorgeous. It looks great hanging outside - I could imagine lots hanging from a tree. I have a cherry tree in my garden that has lots of wind chimes, maybe it needs a dream catcher too! xx

This is so beautiful and fascinating dear Amalia!

your magnificent soul shines through your art and poetry so gloriously!

Dreams ah ...
what we can we do without them
they are source of enlightenment and spiritual journeys

What a pretty dream catcher. I wouldn't find finding a warmer clime to winter in.

Vee said...

It is the prettiest dream catcher I have ever seen. Flying with the geese must be pretty exhilarating. 😊

Dewena said...

I smiled after I read you title and then saw your ribbon and crochet dream catcher. Amalia, may you always winter in peace, despite the journey's dangers.

The other morning I stepped out on the kitchen porch to let my dachshunds out and caught the sight of five geese circling right over my head as they flew down to land on the pond. There was something about the sight of their white underbelly that seemed so vulnerable. It was a nice start to my day.

Lovely Amalia, thanks for sharing on craft schooling Sunday!

Powell River Books said...

Beautiful dream catcher. I assume you crocheted it to size then stitched in on. What did you use for the circle? We have a part time in Bellingham, WA. The geese and swans fly there every winter to feast on the farmer's fields. It isn't much warmer there than their more northern breeding grounds. Hopefully the gees you fly with make it farther south. - Margy

Never -never let go of your dreams, Amalia! They are part of your destiny of why you are here on earth! With some it only becomes more visible later in life, when there comes an unexpected opportunity to get there, so if you need a dream catcher to remind that, so be it:) I see dreams as a way the God who made you is telling you what destiny/purpose you have in life (see Jung's writings). Love you shared with All Seasons you your dream catcher looks!

Carla from The River said...

Lovely.. hang on to those dreams my friend.

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Catch those dreams and hold on to them! They will keep you going on bad days and make the good days even better!

The Liberty Belle said...

Your sweet post reminds me of a mug that my favorite cousin recently gave me. It said, 'It all starts with a dream' on the outside. Inside, the mug said, 'Dream it, believe it, achieve it.' Your dream catcher is adorable and I hope that all your dreams come true.

Lauren @ My Wonderfully Made said...

How very beautiful your dream catcher (and poem) are. I love the bright, colorful ribbons! It all says "Spring is here!" finally!! It reminded me how at the store the other day I stood looking at the clothing section and thought how much prettier the colors are for spring and summer clothes than drab winter wools and such haha!

Liz That Skinny Chick Can Bake said...

We had snow last night! I have dreams of flying with the geese, too, to somewhere that spring has sprung!! P.S. Love that you're holding onto your dreams <3

ELENA said...

Hi Amalia! May all your dreams come true
and the beautiful dream catcher will help you!

Red Rose Alley said...

Thank you, Amalia, for your thoughtful words today. My son is healing and doing better.

What a beautiful dream catcher, and your poem really got to me cause I LOVE THE GEESE! I see them often at the cemetery when I visit my mom and dad. Their honk is LOUD, letting their loved ones know someone is around. But they seem to be still at the cemetery and let me take their picture whenever I want. They really are lovely birds. : )
