and yes the words in the last line alludes to the famous Yeats poem ... is put there on purpose ....
"tread softly because you tread on my dreams"
from He wishes for the cloths of heaven . W.B. Yeats


finding ways



reading high way signs
picking the name which makes me smile
walking shoes
a bag pack
maps are not for me

- dear woman would you tell me
is this the road to his heart
or is the castle I see ahead
the one fortressed and sealed

- in that one my girl
lives a fearful king and his moody son
so take left
(you know it is the same side as your heart)
by the blooming rose

- and then
will I find the way

- that depends my dear
on the strength of your wish
and remember it is love that is in command
so tread softly on its dreams

Kath, this is beautifully done. I found myself completely involved from the topic description, through the title, and on down until the last word of the last line. Captivating is a word I would use to describe this best.
