Dream images can change

poem in tercets

 

Dream images can change.

 

She had a picture in her mind.

Of the man she hoped to find.

Someone that she could look up to.

 

Such was her dream although she knew.

That girlish dreams rarely come true

But she still hoped that hers might do.

 

There was no way she could foresee.

She would be married happily

To a man who could not be.

 

More different in every way

From her dream man of yesterday

But Mother Nature likes to play.

 

The little tricks which she employs

To bring together girls and boys.
A favourite game which she enjoys.

 

When she decides the time is right

All youthful dreams are put to flight.

You see things in a different light.

 

One day you will meet someone new.

 Some man you are attracted to

Destined to fall in love with you..

 

I have no doubt that he dreamt too

About a girl quite unlike you.

But you met as you were meant to.

 

And fell in love it’s nothing new.
Though youthful dreams do not come true.

They are replaced by dreams that do.

Retroactive Event Determination (RED) is a new theory which helps unify Macroscopic Quantum State theory and Consistent History theory, both of which deal in paths, events, and causality of states both macroscopic and microscopic. 'RED' theory states that only after an event has happened is the path which led to it collapsed from the probability cloud from which all possible paths reside. Your poem reminds me powerfully of this action, with a much more personal and sentiment filled scale, and is the perfect burst of light accompanying the flash of heat that is love. Well done, bud!
