Don’t light a candle for my remorse
I’ll chase my dreams on endless course
And never wonder where they alight
But dream your fingertips tonight

Through fields of fresh cut flowers mourn
That I should wake and thus stillborn
And for every fallen daffodil
I wish my dreams would lay me still

Missing pieces found at last
Now I know what might have passed
Now I see what’s black and white
But blessed with all the colors bright

I love a nightmare to bathe in sweat
I love a sin I can’t regret
A nursery rhyme that’s out of whack
Point your finger and three point back

I love you and you love me
I love a dream where I’m still free
Dreams are my imaginary friends
Dreams and I love to pretend

There's got to be someone there Walt because somebody had to write this poem and you had to dream those dreams so if there's no one there then who is posting all this....I enjoyed it very much....ethome

Keep dreaming that is one way to stay out of trouble. Of course make sure you don't call out someone elses name in your sleep. I don't dream in black/white it has all colors of the rainbow.

... Fabulous!
I really liked this walt.

On dreams: "So if I dream I have you, I have you,
For all our joys are but fantastical".
