about
Some time ago I discovered the Belgian poet and pianist John Joos on Instagram. He writes beautiful short poems in French. I particularly liked two of them:
"Il y a des rêves qui ne se réaliseront probablement jamais mais dont la beauté a changé pour toujours celles et ceux qui les ont portés en eux."
English translation:
"There are dreams that will probably never come true, but whose beauty has forever changed those who carried them inside of them."
and
"J'ai probablement vécu mille vies dont cell-ci où je suis né pour te dire 'Je t'aime'".
English translation:
"I've probably lived a thousand lives, including this one, in which I was born to tell you 'I love you'."
Both poems reminded me of some of the dreams I had at the time. Reading these two poems changed my perspective. I realized that I could still cherish those dreams even if they didn't come true and appreciate their beauty.

lyrics
This Dream Inside My Heart
There's a dream I carry inside
It's my shield, my shining light
It holds all of your words
And all of your love
I'm clinging to it so much it hurts
My dream holds all of your colours
You know my heart like no other
I must have lived here before
A thousand lives
And in each one I found the way to your door
Whatever may come
I'm holding on
To this dream inside my heart
It will never fade
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart
My dream might not come true
Maybe it's just passing through
It's a beautiful treasure
You're anchored in my heart
And your beauty has changed me forever
Whatever may come
I'm holding on
To this dream inside my heart
It will never fade
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart
There's a dream I carry inside
It's my shield, my shining light
It holds all of your words
And all of your love
I'm clinging to it so much it hurts
My dream holds all of your colours
You know my heart like no other
I must have lived here before
A thousand lives
And in each one I found the way to your door
Whatever may come
I'm holding on
To this dream inside my heart
It will never fade
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart
My dream might not come true
Maybe it's just passing through
It's a beautiful treasure
You're anchored in my heart
And your beauty has changed me forever
Whatever may come
I'm holding on
To this dream inside my heart
It will never fade
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart
And no one can take it
Away or tear it apart

April's sky is down here among us, today...with Winter's fading grey and bursts of rabid rain...But the birdsong fights it out with the wind, the tough wee bastards..."Sing, boys! Sing for your love!!! Yaaaas!"...And all accompanied by these subtle drones of crafted beauty...Gorgeous music to watch the seasons go by...
