Dream

Yes I am dying
As are we all
While times feet dance
On my beaten bones

And though it is winter
The sun still shines
While the stars flicker silently
In a moonless sky

Bundled up warmly
In my winters best
I sit on my rocker
In the crisp cold air

With a young boys dreams 
Of the summers past
And how warm the nights 
Had once been
