dream.

i was a little girl. alone in my little world who dreamed of a little home for me. i played pretend between the trees and fed my house guests bark and leaves and laughed in my pretty bed of green. i had a dream that i could fly from the highest swing... i had a dream. long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park. i asked god who i'm supposed to be. the stars smiled down at me. god answered in silent reverie. i said a prayer and fell asleep. i had a dream that i could fly from the highest tree... i had a dream. now i'm old and feeling gray. i don't know what's left to say about this life, i'm willing to leave. i lived it full, i lived it well. as many tales i have to tell. i'm ready now, i'm ready now, i'm ready now to fly from the highest wing. i had a dream.
