For Ever We Dream

I love the sheen on the grass
A muted green wet with dew
Slivered they say
Beneath deeply shadowed trees
In the morning sun

Here and there the grass sparkles
As droplets glisten
Catching the sunshine
The day warming
As hope anew awakens
A new day unfolding through the haze
Of distant mists
A gift to make of whatever we dream
For ever we dream of a better day
Beneath sunny skies blue
