Occasional Impressions

Gemini Twin

Searching for a dream

Wind in my face,
In my eyes,
As I race
Towards the morning sun.
Rain on my cheek,
On my chin,
As I seek
The love of anyone.
Fallen trees have blocked my road.
Drifts of snow have left me cold.
Searching for a dream,
I have been this way before.
Love is something I want more
Than an empty dream.

Lost in the crush,
In the crowd,
As I rush
Along the busy streets.
Sat on the bus,
What a noise
What a fuss,
But noone ever meets.
Standing in the city square,
All around the traffic’s blare.
Searching for a dream,
I have been this way before.
Love is something I want more
Than an empty dream.

I have seen such pretty faces,
Sunlit, starlit, and in shade.
I have been to many places,
All the places dreams are made.

Beside the sea,
Hear the gulls
Calling me
As they pass overhead.
Watching the sky
As the sun
By and by
Will change from gold to red.
From my shoes the sand I shake,
Trying hard to keep awake.
Searching for a dream,
I have been this way before.
Love is something I want more
Than an empty dream.
