.'DREAMS.n

The sunshine greets US in the morn,
"Our dreams are true" we say.
But ere the day is fully shorn
Some dream has passed away.
We dream of that, we dream of this;
As we move on our way.
But just when we think life is bliss,
Our sweet dreams pass away.
We plunge into the daily grind;
We care not; for we're gay;
But ere the task is left behind,
The glad dream goes away.
Disasters come, disasters go,
But still we dream Away;
How sad it Is, when first we know,
Our dream has passed away.
We launch into some enterprise;
We're sure that Wen hold sway;
And then it's dark before our eyes,
Our dream has passed away.
We think there's really no deceit;
We almost shout Hooray!
Then there's a funeral down the
street,
Cause our dream passed away.
We plan the day with utmost care;
Just what wen do and say,
But circumstance, life's greatest
snare,
Drives pleasant dreams away.
But just because the dream you chase,
Has long since passed away;
Is no excuse to stop the race,
Dream OF. Eoull win some day.
Subject your dreams to one great
goal;
Work toward it every day.
To that one dream, devote your soul,
And it can't pass away.
