DREAMS AND THINGS
Many people spend their time on dreams and things,
Hoping for a break in their life's main stream.
What would you want that you do not have?
Would it be something lasting or maybe a new path.
There are those who will settle for the simple and mundane,
And then there are those who want whatever they claim.
A dream you say is all it is, just lofty thoughts of the mind.
Well maybe it's time to enlighten yourself and see down the line..
Dreams are good if you have the right motive
And you are honest about what makes you feel closer.
The days of making plans may be short at hand
So don't put off until tomorrow any important plans.
It's hard to follow through, when you're not in tune
Somehow you have lost that freshness too soon.
The Spirit that drove you when you were forgiven
Needs a recheck and overhaul before it's driven.
It's easy to let your guard down and not pray
And save that inspiring thought for another day.
Let's reach out and touch that dream inside,
And nurture it and breathe into it new life.
If I could have my dearest dream to come true
It would be all days with no pain, sorrow or feeling blue.
Just peace that only God above can give,
And a home up in Heaven to eternally live.

Proverbs 27: 1) Boast not thyself of tomorrow;
for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
