Warmer than blood

Where we drift and call it dreaming
We can weep and call it singing
. Iron & Wine. 

 

Now, I'm old and going grey
It's surely time to put dreams away.
Really! That surprises me..
I'd have thought 
That as I've nought to lose,
And really do not mind, at all, 
If I'm called a fool.
I'll stick with dreams;
So thanks, but 
Immediately, and without delay,
Let me dream
If only for this one final  day..

A boy in an exam once said his dreams were in a matchbox the teacher marked the question wrong as the question was what is in the matchbox, the correct answer was nothing. But really the boy had put his dreams in there. Kerp dreaming, all children should have dreams also x and our system of schooling very often tramples on them x

In the words of Shakespeare, “Life is but a dream, within a dream.” Keep writing John, fulfilling your dreams and fueling ours! ?
