Which way dreaming
Megan Ugle
We are simple people
we are verbal people
we are storytellers from way beyond
we have been for millennia
storytelling is how we learn
yarning is how we connect
have we forgotten who we are?
Are we asleep?
write our story
read our story
tell our story
this is who we are
dreaming, we must be dreaming
tell ourselves our own stories
we are the ones that hold the key
to our very own destiny
create your dream
sing your dream
write your dream
tell and speak your dream
listen to yourself telling your dream
dance your dream
paint and draw your dream
breathe life into your dream.
They get confused when we talk about dreaming.
Who are they to tell us our dreaming is wrong?
Our creation is wrong?
What is a dream? A dream is our hearts’ longing.
Our dreaming is verbal if we choose to share.
Our dreaming is unconscious if we choose to be silent.
Our dreaming is our very own witness.
We are the creators.
We are the silent witness
to our very own dreaming.
We are the knowledge holders
we are the seekers.
So who’s telling your story?
Who’s telling your dream?
Who’s behind your dream?
The one watching.

Favourite sea creature
My favourite sea creature is the starfish. Just because it's unique and beautiful. I also have fond memories of a beach trip where the beach was full of them.
