The Dreamer of No Dream Posted on September 2, 2013 by acupofsongwriting Reply For the dreamers in the world Who have no dream Who own the tug boat With it, no steam – For the wonderers Hoping for all the good This world can bring But to afraid to sing – Living life out on the edge For nothing more Than a simple pleasure Their life to give – I ponder these wondering souls They wonder the streets Never quite up Never quite down – The careless attitude they possess No thought for the formal No trial for scrutiny No firm contra success – I am grinning as I write About this loving souls They have no lingering care As their bodies grow old – I hope that I posses such traits Striving for life and its blessings With no crudeness for advantage Happiness truly is the ultimate bandage – I am lifted by simple smiles The thought of easy hearts brings me back The dreamer of no dream Is quite more sophisticated than it seams – So here is to the wanders I hope you find what you seek Your heart is happy And your adversaries’ weak – Here is to you Keep the dream alive and well So one day Your story you can tell AdvertisementShare this:TwitterFacebookLike this:Like Loading...
