Dare to Dream

Dare to Dream

Some people only look at life through
eyes that seldom gleam
while others look beyond today as
they’re guided by a dream
And the dreamer can’t be sidetracked by
dissenters who may laugh
for only they alone can know how
special is their path
But dreams aren’t captured easily;
there’s much work before you’re through
but the time and efforts are all worthwhile
when the impossible comes true
And dreams have strength in numbers
for when a common goal is shared
the once impossible comes true
because of all who cared
And once it’s seen reality
a dream has just begun
for magically, from dreams come dreams
and a walk becomes a run
But with growth of course comes obstacles
and with obstacles come fear
but the dream that is worth dreaming
finds its way into the clear
And the dream continues growing
reaching heights before unseen
and it’s all because of the courage
of the dreamers and their dream
