Once Upon A Dream

We place our dreams into our soul
And pray one day it becomes a realized goal

Once I dreamed of a country home so neat
With flowered paths at my feet

A sunrise morn wakened by Rooster crow
A garden plot where I did grow

My favorite things I love so
In sunset glow a melody sweet
Of Mockingbird in near meadow
Echoing past my window seat

But that was once upon a dream
And now I tearfully let it go
Gone like the rose petals
Withered in the winter snow

Perhaps I'll find...
Another dream to dream

And if I should
I'll place it in a bottle
And let it float down stream
