Yesterday In a Dream

Yesterday I dosed in a dream And caught sunrays in a jar I was captive on a carousel of time While pondering what love is to a star The Painted Pony was running free And the season writing words in rhyme Faces fading past in joy and laughter Playing a part in this dream of mine Clouds appeared and I feared of lightning And tearful when thunder roared afar The wind blew hard for the season And scattered the sunrays from my jar The leaves fled in colors The wind rushed the water of a stream My thoughts came back and joined me and vanished my disappearing dream I can’t return but I can send a wish As the stream keeps limping on I must wait until the carousel make It’s circle And another dream comes along The season has passed in splendor The wheel, once more starts a new Shadows dance in step with a breeze And clouds float in review I can see the shade that welcomes me Winter has gone and spring is coming round The Painted Pony glides by faces And the carousel slows its circle down
