Dreams


Capture your fears in a shell
Clasp your tears in your hands

Close your eyes and look around
How tranquil is the world within-

Where butterflies bloom into flowers
And burst into a myriad of colors

Where the peacocks soar deep into the sky
Where the leaves are gold by the day

Their tips silver by the night
Where you walk over that bridge

Of fine woven lace
And the moon smiles up from the river

Into your beautiful glowing face
Where the deities dine with us

At our tables
And the kings and queens don't exist
Even in fables

And when you open your shells
Pearls will be revealed within

And when you open your hand
The fears will vanish like grains of sand

Then open your eyes
And realize

That you have for so long been a fool

Life no doubt is very beautiful
