The Bottom Line Written to one I loved very much. An old love song inspired the thought. "Time waits for no one." If you remember, then you'll understand.

DREAM STREAM

I hate the way the stream of life
Keeps racing toward the sea;
No longer does it have the flow
That carried you and me.

Remember how you took my hand,
(We were quite naive then)
And pulled me in so recklessly?
But that was way-back-when.

We splashed, we plunged, we had such fun;
We laughed and loved and learned.
And yet, one day, we found a spot
Where our great river turned.

One dark day, you swam away;
And I stood on the shore
Because the waters were too swift
To play in, anymore.

Now I stroll along those banks
And fish along the stream,
And pray, before I reach that sea,
I'll catch you - in a dream.

Lorace (c)2003
