When I Dream

A poem illustrating the desire to feel the beauty of dreams in reality.

When I Dream

By Justin Beall

 

When I dream I dream of leaves,

Of trees of green and autumn’s breeze,

Of summer sun and winter freeze;

Oh when I dream I dream of these.

 

I see I’m in a forest green,

So full of life and full of trees,

Bright light to see and air to breathe;

I run and let my mind be free.

 

When I close my weary eyes,

I dream I see the golden sky;

I watch the shining clouds float by,

And let my burdened soul take flight.

 

When I wake to see the light

From window panes so full and bright

I hope to see the things in life -

The things I dream so clear at night.
