what are dreams
but nuggets of the universe that
wash up on the shores of our minds
what are hopes
but unseen desires we summon
to stand on these same shores

Desires and fears. Some nights there are just pieces of shells but other nights a whole conch appears for the calling and listening.

Dreams as nuggets of the universe made me smile. It is such an endearing way to look at all these dreams and hopes that line up “on the shores of our minds”.
