... sometimes the candle dreams of a strong wind ...

You are the poor one, you the destitute.

You are the stone that has no resting place.

You are the diseased one whom we fear to touch.

Only the wind is yours.

You are poor like the spring rain that gently caresses the city;

like wishes muttered in a prison cell, without a world to hold them;

and like the invalid, turning in his bed to ease the pain.

Like flowers along the track, shuddering as the train roars by, and like the hand

that covers our face when we cry - that poor.

Yours is the suffering of birds on freezing nights,

of dogs who go hungry for days.

Yours the long sad waiting of animals who are locked up and forgotten.

You are the beggar who averts his face,

the homeless person who has given up asking;

you howl in the storm.

Rainer Maria Rilke, from The Book of Poverty and Death

Are we not better and at home In dreamful Autumn, we who deem No harvest joy is worth a dream? A little while and night shall come, A little while, then, let us dream.

Autumnal by Ernest Dowson, from the poems and prose of Ernest Dowson

A dream so vibrant, A dream so blissful; I hold it close to my heart. In anxious nights, And days of hope; These years have passed solely. One day the dream to turn true- If only~

if you need something desperately and find it,

this is not an accident;

your own craving and compulsion leads you to it ~
