Dreams By: Paul Laurence DunbarWhat dreams we have and how they flyLike rosy clouds across the sky;Of wealth, of fame, of sure success,Of love that comes to cheer and bless;And how they wither, how they fade,The waning wealth, the jilting jade —The fame that for a moment gleams,Then flies forever, —dreams, ah —dreams!O burning doubt and long regretO tears with which our eyes are wet,Heart-throbs, heart-aches, the glut of pain,The somber cloud, the bitter rain,You were not of those dreams — ah! well,Your full fruition who can tell?Wealth, fame, and love, ah! love that beamsUpon our souls, all dreams — ah! dreams.Poems are green and Poetry is mean. -Poetry Beast Please accept my endless gratitude,I'm tickled pink,You're a gift!Thank you for your time and attention.It's a blessing you've stopped to observe and listen.ADDITIONAL INFO: @thebaldheadedpoet | Linktree
