Picture

What are dreams but shadows?
Hopes of things unseen,
Wishes left unspoken,
What may yet be.

A man was singing today,
Tune I did not know,
Wistful and with memory,
Nostalgia I cannot see.

Leave me not in the dark,
A story or two to hear,
What was can be learned,
A change in today to make.

Reality could be a dream,
A dream made real for a change,
A life lived in the past,
What hope for a present today?

Move aside, step back,
Take in the picture's whole,
See the words there written,
A thought to take you through.
