My Flying Dreams-Hutinashro

My flying dreams have flown away. Another place, another day, when dreaming in my bed at night, into the air I used to lift, and with the stars or clouds I’d drift. So young was I when all seemed bright! No more to starlight do I sail, for I have seen some big dreams fail. I’d thought failed dreams would be my plight as plans in my life went awry. Farewell to dreams in which I fly - Yet. . .for my dreams I need to fight! My flying dreams have flown away. At least that’s what I used to say when I believed those dreams had flown away for good; but now I feel perhaps some dreams can be made real! I must not sit around and moan how even daydreams can’t come true. I’m feeling hope has come anew. An optimism now has grown inside me. Do I dare again to dream I’ll leave the ground and then touch sky and reap all that I’ve sown? I’m dreaming daydreams, hoping so! I want to soar and touch a star and LIVE my dream before I go. . .
