Fragility of Dreams

FRAGILITY OF DREAMS

      Once life started with prolonged daydreams of endless possibilities.   
      Carefree childhood ran on sweet dream dancing on dazzling morn.
       Budding youth bearing so many dormant dreams
       took proud arrogant steps to sizzling noon of aspiring dream 
       to glow in glamorous gorgeous gleam. 
      Life merged in fizzling eve of continuous struggle as lone fighter.
       Dusty dusk blending in solitary nugatory night of senile decay.
       Yet not in despondence but in fragility of dreams.
