Boulevard of Dreams


Like so many possibilities, the cars stream by
All gleaming in the sun, catching my eye
Offering so many choices I can make in life;
which woman do I desire to always stand alongside me,
what kind of man do I aspire in life to be?
Do I want her to be as strong, or stronger than me;
do I want to be gentle and kind, giving love freely?
Strolling down this boulevard of dreams,
thinking of the endless possibilities ...
the vast unknown quantities presented in life
What do I look for, what will I pass with regret?
All the beautiful flowers on this boulevard,
which will I pick, which will I forget?
I believe in my heart
that God will direct me the right way
So as I continue to walk down this boulevard of dreams,
I wonder with much curiosity, what will the future bring
