Dreams From My Father

DREAMS FROM MY FATHER Out of nothingness Beneath the apparent certainty; lies a promise Promise of a wonderful future; one of a kind A made believe that the bushes will turn into flowers A prophecy that my paths will become roads Nexus of contradiction; this dreams lack strong foundation When I awoke from it; I remembered nothing. The good shall get better All the best; the best wishes his son To be better than the father is all the father hopes To take on the dragons of fate; he prays To carry on the family beyond the fortress of the clan To leave the family footprints in the sands of time All good hopes and wishes; if only dreams come true. Efforts on efforts amidst the forces of nature Always struggling to keep up with the struggles of life Swimming against the tides in the sea of hustle Making me think that my father might actually be a seer He foretold that it won’t be an easy sail in the sea All as he said has come to pass overtime with time Upon reflections; this is my dream for my son. Lordvip
