As I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel for the end of my Dream Cycle I have taken a look back at a couple of my undeveloped ideas. There are two texts that I considered using, but did not use. The first is a text by Christina Georgina Rossetti entitled Mirage. As you know, I am using Rossetti's Echo as the final song of the cycle. Mirage is a beautiful three-stanza poem about things not always being what you want them to be.
The other text is an original poem I wrote around 2002 entitled Nights When I Dream. This is a very personal effort for me. I wrote this when I was coming to terms with moving from Bowling Green, OH to Eugene, OR. This poem is also a reflection of my personal feelings and beliefs.
I may yet decide to put these texts into song and either expand Dream Cycle or possibly make a sequel to the song cycle. Only time will tell.
