DREAMS

 

There are too many meanings

for this word, “Dream.”

I have so many dreams:

hopes, fantasies, possibilities,

impossibilities, plans, visions.

They come to me during boring

sermons, speeches, meetings.

They come to me when I want

to be doing something else.

It’s good to have them.

I love it – when I can ask a kid –

“What’s your dream?” or when

I can ask someone in a nursing

home, “Did you do your dreams?”

“Did you do your dreams?”

I have – but I still have more

dreams waiting to wake up to.

Glad to say and think that – still.
