MOTHER'S DREAM my mother dreams of seashells, she dreams of mountain peaks. my mother dreams of rolling waves, she dreams of fabled lands. for all her dreams, for all she longs, my mother is a house wife. yet she remains content. my mother dreams of grand love, she dreams of houses on a hill. my mother dreams of true hearts, she dreams of goldun sun. for all her passion, for all her love, my mother married him. yet she keeps her resolve. my mother is a goddess, yet she's no need of a church. my mother is an empress, yet she need not have a throne. my mother dreams of Disneyland, she dreams fo California sand. my mother dreams of starlight, she dreams of cloudless skies. for all her beauty, for all her hope, my mother lives in Rochester, yet she seems satisfied. my mother dreams of castles, she dreams of their ripe gardens. my mother dreams of hay fields, she dreams of wisping wheat. for all her castles, for all her farms, my mother owns one acre. yet she makes that acre beautiful. my mother is a noble, yet she need not call on serfs. my mother is a queen, yet she has no need to be hail'd.
