Do Dreams Ever Die
by M. Griswold
08112020
When one who dreams passes from this life unto death.
Do all those dreams dreamed lose their spirit and breath?
Do the dreamer’s dreams follow them into their grave?
To never live again for whom those dreams were gave.
Dreamers come, and dreamers go upon this time plain.
They've been given a gift to dream so all the world may gain.
Some visions are too great and are never to be believed at all.
But then, dreams are only as big as the dreamer can recall.
If the dreamer only dreams a dream and never tells anyone.
Then those dreams never really exist and are less than none.
But if the dreamer is faithful to the gift and believes it is true.
And becomes real only when seen by others, like me and you.
A truly great dream will live beyond all time and measure.
And will always be remembered as a dreamer’s true treasure.
The dreamer is only the messenger that delivers his dreams.
But dreams live on through other’s memories flowing streams.
