Comments seriously make my day!
--------------------------------------
Progression
To think, To wonder, To dream
My thoughts are jumbled
I wonder about the world
My dreams are bound to crumble
I think abstractly
I wonder about all
I dream too vividly
To feel, To love, To touch
Feeling with the nerves inside me
Loving things that I’ve never known
Trying to touch everything I see
I feel deeply
I love all I see
I touch too quickly
To travel, To explore, To see
I travel into the misty night
To explore the great unknown
To see the world bathed in light
I travel far
I explore thoroughly
I see too little
To believe, To pray, To lean
Believing in the one bigger than I
Praying to he who knows my desires
Leaning on him when I stop to cry
I believe strongly
I pray longingly
I lean too lightly

The pattern is simply wonderful! And the title really fits this poem. This is a really good poem, Emilee--and you're becoming a better poetic each time you write a new one, really!
"It is not the length of life, but the depth of life." Ralph Waldo Emerson
