Dream a Little Dream

A poem by your's truly.

Glistenings upon the mornings land

As light of the star gleams off the drops of dew

Steps softly unto the grass with steaming mug in hand

Unto this world, there is plenty for one to do

---

Early birds may gather the squirming little worm of the day

But first comes the basic of attending to ones needs

The detractors of course will have something more to say

But unto the world we plant our growing seeds

---

Readying for the tasks

Preparing ones self, getting into the right mindset

See to your allies asks

And prepare yourself to live today with no regret

---

Nestled deep into the day, growing pains fill your eyes

A million and one things lie before thee

Many of them so irksome, your long past failed cries

One by one, your push them off the list, ending on bended knee

---

Rest easy once the day's chores have been done

There are none who've gotten more that you

Make it all seem like you've had some fun

Starting again tomorrow, the thing you must do

---

Do not tire, for it's not your time

The ringing of the clock feels without meaning

When you can no longer show, it'll be a crime

Be sure you're not just dreaming
