To Dream Of Greatness
I like seaside piers; in a parallel world I’m a Victorian engineer
In this world I am mostly polite and mostly sincere
I like architecture: in a parallel world I designed Carnegie Hall
In this world I just sketch buildings, taking in it all
I like trains; in a parallel world I drive them to Kathmandu
In this world no leaves or snow on the track will do
I like trees; in a parallel world I saved the Amazon Rainforest
In this world against a tree I simply like to sit and rest
I like walking; in a parallel world whole continents I slowly cross
In this world after a days hike exhausted I come across
I like folk music; in a parallel world I am in Fairport Convention
In this world poetry is my way of getting attention
I like dreaming; in a parallel world I follow dreams and never fate
In this world make them happen as well…why wait?
