I Once Dreamed I once dreamed, in colors bright, Of all the wondrous things I might Do and see. Life stretched away Like a sunny, prairie day. I once dreamed in scale so grand. Had the years all set and planned. Looking back, there's very few Things I thought of, that came true. Yet, there's little I would change. Maybe that sounds rather strange. There's been sorrow, there's been strife, But also good things in my life. Love and marriage.Children too. I once dreamed and I still do!

all poets are dreamers my friend else we would be at a loss for words I think. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
