DREAM

Do not grieve the empty dream
Or great fortunes ill begot
Things are not what they seem
In a dream that time forgot
Fill your dream with all you want
Take the cream of the crop
Wear the crown where jewels abound
In dreams you can change your lot
Remember only, that when you wake
When you shoulder what you’ve made
There must be foundation strong
A base of concrete laid
