Analysis of Dream magic

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



Dreams have a powerful magic all their own

Our wishes also follow two streams

Which carry dream magic

Bends to follow

Each intended course

One, sails to power our aspirations

Two, the rudder for our intended course

Used together they act with winds of change

Create the course of destiny, whose callings

Guide our path through life
