Don'T Quit Your Daydream

I often find myself lost in a daydream like trance,
for it has always been my wish to travel France;
to Paris, know to be the city of culture and romance.

Escaping reality, I walk crisscross cobbled streets,
stop at a terrace for cafe and croissant treats;
go to the opera and mingle with the Parisian elites.

In my daydream, I am floating down the Seine river,
wandering the Louvre and at the top of the Eiffel, I quiver;
gazing at Paris, so beautifully lit up at night, I shiver.

I want the bookstores, outdoor markets, the wine,
the architecture, and on delicious French food dine;
and at Pere La Chaise Cemetery among graves twine.

I will never let go of my Paris, France daydream,
oh yes, my daydream has a recurring theme;
it comes to me in a vintage gray color scheme.
