A Tapestry of Dreams
Dreams I've strung together,
Of the Robin on its wing--
Interwoven tenderly
With yarn, and thread, and string.
The redolence of summer
Mingled with the winter breeze--
The image of a starry night,
Of flowers, hills, and trees.
A picture on a naked wall
For everyone to see--
Visions of the hummingbird,
As well the honeybee.
A lively pattern on display
Of hope, as well regret--
Recollections in tranquility
Of the things I can't forget.
The things that I have noticed,
Although tend to overlook--
Like the autumn leaves first falling,
Or the babbling of a brook.
Designs of places unexplored;
Of dawn's triumphant beams--
T is a woven bit of majesty:
A tapestry of dreams.
