Dreams of a Young Boy

 

Young and curious

Always in search of adventure

To learn the unknown

Daring to enter

 

Watching the Sunset

He wonders of days to come

Of cowboys, astronauts and baseball

His dreams all rolled into one

 

Hypnotized by firelight

He tries to foresee the years

Where to go to

Which way to steer

 

What quests await him

Finding the confidence to chase

And the patience to learn

The meaning of time and space

 

Not so fast young one

All good things in time

Slow down and enjoy your life

And remember to read between the lines
