Dream Holder Poem by bob barci

I hold inside
too many dreams for just one person.
Won’t you pluck one out
and, perhaps, make it come true?
Too many dreams, I hold,
that never see daylight.
Buy one of my dreams
and show it the light.
I, as dream holder,
have more than my fair share of dreams.
Buy one, if you will,
and pull it out into the light.
Show the people of the land
that some dreams do come true.
Perhaps, someday,
a child will prick my dream bubble
with a needle or a pin,
and my dreams will burst out upon the land.
On that day,
you will see all that I’ve held inside.
And maybe, just maybe,
some of you, here, now,
will grab at those dreams,
hold them inside for awhile,
mix them with your own.
And perhaps, one day,
one of those dreams
will see the light and come true.
