Dreaming

by: Kring de Vera

As I finished my homework

My dream again just commenced
Can't hesitate to think of it
It is the one I can't resist

Dreaming so much of this... and that...

Squeezes my mind but builds my heart
Thinking someday, somehow, somewhat
This distant dream within my touch

Gazing the stars through my window

Counting leaves on its bough
Doesn't make me feel relieved
Nor make my heart aggrieved

I just can't think what a dream is

I even don't know what it means
What I believe it is a gain
What happiness to me it brings rather than pain.
