Interpretation of Dreams
I dreamt of…
So many times, I’ve heard these words
Random thoughts or serious meaning
Some say yes, while others disagree
And yet the joy is in examining
When you find yourself falling
Means you have conflicted emotions
Maybe losing control altogether
But when you dream of flying
New opportunities are at your gate
Maybe you’ve dreamt of packing
Look for a positive change in your life
Re-evaluate to prepare for the future
Sometimes dreams are all about stairs
Climbing upward has great meaning
A good sign that success awaits you
Climbing downward say something else
Troubles are waiting and you’ll be lost
When water permeates your dream
Take note whether its calm or frothy
Smooth sailing on the clam pools
Turbulence reflects stress and pressure
If you find yourself running
Trying in vain to escape reality
You may feel alone with no goals in sight
A dream about death means guilt
Something in your past is haunting you
Or and end of something awaits you
Animal dreams are very broad
Are they wild or tame, healthy or not
Can you touch them or are you hidden
There’s so much here to say
A dream of doors can swing both ways
New opportunity or a missed chance
Indecision, protection, or a transformation
While a dream of keys can symbolize a secret
Or control over something or someone
A dream of sickness is a warning
Dreams of the moon are often enigmatic
It’s the discovery of what makes you whole
Emotional fulfillment and shifting tides
While dreaming of trash is a great reveal
Are you removing it or living in it
Taking it out means you’re getting clean
Ignoring it ties to fear, guilt, negativity and shame
Love dreams are laden with fantasy
But also, of deeper connections
Or something you wished could be
Dreaming of dreaming is a lack of attention
You are sleeping and need to awake
It’s the first step to true realization
The list continues, the interpretations too
What you believe is up to you
Why we dream is still unknown
Messenger or randomness
You decide…

It is true…”the joy is in examining”….well done Ralph. Jamie
Where would the poet be without their dreams? For me, dreams give me inspiration in all that I do – be it a novel, short story, or my poetry. Very well-conceived piece Ralph. You are an inspiration to me with your work.
Very well done, Ralph. I have always been intrigued with dream interpretation, so I enjoyed reading this piece.
