Sand Castles in the Sky

I see dreams in the clouds. 
Not just illusions, 
but perspectives, 
indications. 
I touch sand castles in the sky 
and let my eyes 
look for me inside the walls. 
I sink my feet  into the sand 
where the water draws 
that which it erases. 
I hold myself in common 
prayer moments. 
Sending my words to 
Jesus, who promised 
always to listen. 
I hear His reply 
in the thousand points 
of light that shiver 
through my prayers. 
I trust in what He promises, 
though I fail to 
capture His wisdom. 
I watch the pictures in 
my fingers moving with 
the passion of living. 
I see dreams in the clouds. 
Not just illusions, 
but perspectives, 
indications. 
I touch sand castles in the sky 
and let my eyes 
look for me inside the walls.

Sand Castles In The Sky

You have touched sand castles in the sky very nicely.
Beautiful poem. I have enjoyed reading your poems
for some time now. I just haven't commented on them...
Love your work.
