These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Windsparks: "So Many People"

Photographer

I dreamed
I was a photographer
creating in my own studio and on location,
painting portraits with pixels, paper, ink & acrylics,
capturing.

---------------------------------

Gardener

I dreamed
I was a gardener
creating beauty in great yards,
placing hostas, hibiscuses, dianthuses, and coleuses on each stage,
savoring.

---------------------------------------

Pianist

I dreamed
I was a pianist
playing in a church,
lifting sonatas and concertos to the Lord,
praying.

--------------------------------------------

Poet

I dreamed
I was a significant poet
writing in a castle, filled with white Christmas lights,
forming new and glorious rhymes, rhythms, and gifts,
immersing.

--------------------------------------------------------

Novelist

I dreamed
I was a novelist
smithing words in a peaceful, grand hall,
writing epic journeys, and vacations for the mind,
traveling.

---------------------------------------------------

Preacher

I dreamed
I was a preacher
speaking clearly in a cathedral,
proclaiming all the Gospel's Good News,
worshiping.

-----------------------------------------

Traveler

I dreamed
I was a traveler
seeing all the Lord's blessed Earth,
enjoying every height and depth,
adoring.
