They say it’s alright to dream
till enlightened we greet the dawn
and watch the sun absorb every one
like the hungry devour a meal.

And I opened my door early today
to a wholesome and satisfied sky
beautiful, yes, with pastel delights
burning up my love for you.  

They say it takes time to believe in signs
but no one’s immune or excluded
from the rise of dreams and beliefs
destined all one day to die.

The beautiful morning sun
gobbles up love on the run
and spits out the flames of desire
into the shadows of night
maybe because I need to know  
there’s no place for love
under the sun!

Daylight's examination leaves little room for fantasy. Love, more fleeting than life. Ah, to sleep perchance to dream. Enjoyed
passing shadows

Thank you both so much for the read.  I'm not yet certain whether dreams are a good thing or not but even wisdom eventually comes to a fool.
