Some became listener favorites; others quietly became favorites of my own. One Poem Only Revisited is an invitation to return—to listen again, reflect, and discover what feels different now. Today’s poem is Dreams by Cecilia Knight. Read the full poem on Substack. More from Cecilia Knight ↓ @ceciliaknightpoems on InstagramHer book, The Burning Pages, is available now.

I’m filling the next chapter of One Poem Only and would love to include your work. Send me the poem you wrote and want the world to hear.
