There is a dream far from
the land of my soul.
There are tearful streams
of thought caressing the
yearning warmth of my being.
Windfull trees sway to the
rhythm of nature's heart-beat
in the eye of the me that
I am.
This new dawn, I walk your path
with handsome hope and tear-drops
on my right hand.
This new day, I yearn to see
new landscapes and new beginnings.
But the day is misty, the landscape
unkwown.
Yet I am heaven's hopeful child.
And I must dream beautiful, new
dreams on this land of the eagle.
This new day, let me be created
anew with love on this land of
the eagle beyond my dreams.
Let me be who I must be for the
good of all humanity. Just let
me be made whole on this land
of the eagle.
This new day, there
is a dream far from
the land of my
yearning soul.
Help me Lord!
This new day, let me be
created anew with living
hope and strength on this
lush land of the eagle!

Each day does indeed hold new beginnings. When we try to view tomrrow
from yesterdays point of view, those new beginnings do look misty.
Even if we try to see the newness in the early dawn, there is mist.
We are unable to see the plans which God lays before us each day, for
his plans are much different than what we could ever imagine. I think
we are only to know that His plans for us is for a new day, a promise,
and our chance to remember He is the commander in chief of our soul.
With that, we are created anew and refreshed. We may keep our dreams,
for those are what he gives us to pursue. Dreams are like ships
floating captainless along the sea of our mind. Dreams, waiting for
us to permit Him to come aboard to sail them into their port where
their reality will manifest. Ugonna, this poem was splendid!

This is musical and sublime; it reads like a long, euphoric sigh. Well done.
