Analysis of I had a Dream



I had a dream, a dream of warmth filling my heart
joyous sounds all around me
smiling people,
newborn babies..

I feel a breeeze

As I turn , a sudden change
a black hole envelopes my eyes,
a shadow of a hand reaches through,
and comforts me along the way.

Much of my energy comes from thinking on the go, brainstorming continually, sometimes so much so I get lost in my own thoughts if I don't have someone to bounce my ideas off of. My perceptive nature to new situations with added persistence helps me learn and grow in many areas, independently and as part of a team.I enjoy all the pleasant things in life but can be critical of that I don't believe in. I try to say or word it without being to critical but had to learn to control my overzealous opinions and sit back to look at all sides of the situation.What I enjoy everyday is to learn something new.
