The sound of a Dream

I heard the sound 
of a dream 
That birthed 
in the heart of a man
Like a seed of desire 
That slowly sprouted 
With an unknown torment
To make itself known 
The moment that knows
The waiting of a revelation 
 In still waters 
To  rise  like that of  a wave
The moment it takes 
To take a breath away
To strive thence upon 
That which is now known 
Till then silent beneath 
no longer be the placid waters 
Cause now on every ripple 
Will add to the the splendor 
Of the beautiful dance of waves 
What desires thought can take 
What grandeur dreams can achieve
Whether they be 
Even of a little grass 
To sway in the breeze 
Would be fulfilled
Yes I heard of that dream  
It ain't any of the lesser 
And like all of the grandest
The seen and the unseen 
Was every one man's dream

This little poem has been inspired by Yanni's music " One Man's Dream ". I wouldn't say it could do much justice but  thought I could try to attempt atleast in whatever little way I could to put my feelings of when I  hear it.
