I Dream Of You Poem by Living Experience

Today I woke with a smile,
Because I dreamed of you,
And all the fantastic things,
You often always do.

In my dream...

You were boarding,
Down the mountain side,
You took turns with ease,
You looked like you could fly.

When you hit the bottom,
You slid to a fast stop,
Took off your pair of goggles,
And glanced back to the top.

Seeing your accomplishment,
Made you screech in sheer delight,
For you had conquered your fears,
With all your pride and might.

As the dream continued,
You grew to be a pro,
You took the biggest hills,
Where others dared not go.

You had several trophies,
Medals Gold and Bronze,
All of these achievements,
Filled your heart with song.

Its not what you get in life,
That makes you who you are,
It all the effort you put in,
That takes you very far.

The lesson in this dream,
Is easy for all to see,
We're so proud of you,
For being all you can be.

So don't look back on yesterday,
When today has yet to come,
Just believe in yourself,
You'll be surprised at all you've won.

And on a little lighter note,
This poem was just for you,
Because you have touched my life,
In everything you do.

**For My Niece.**
