Yesterday's Dream

The golden dream of yesterday
Still lingers for tommorrow
From its desire, the longing breeds
Contentment we can borrow
I little place within the heart
That’s still is void the sorrow

But for today, I’ll live each hour
By predetermined scheme
Now and then a wishful eye
Upon horizon’s gleam
Those silver streaks on mountains edge
Reflecting off my dream

For every dream that has come true
Was born of fascination
And better than the dream itself
Is heart’s anticipation
Remains of bygone fantasy
Can still spark pure elation

Nothing is better than a dream, except for when it becomes reality. Love your poem

I have to agree with Sunshine-that was a gorgeous line. Sometimes the waiting really is the best part.
