Sometimes we forget our dreams of childhood and the
thoughts of tomorrow; wishes and hopes surrounded
by laughter and smiles. But the Dream Maker never rests;
and as such is remembered below.
the Dream Maker can be
selfish or a great help; as he will let us each decide how
and which door we enter; for we all have dreams, for we all
have dreams.

"Just a Reminder"

CJI
1/7/99

Verse 1
********

Are you just a dreamer
in the night time to beguile
and to lead many astray
to only sedate egos and greed?

Verse 2
********

Or do you also come in the day
for those to see you as you are
to learn to know if the dreams
you carefully weave are true or not?

Verse 3
********

Of I've been warned of you my friend
since childhood I've known you too
for both good and evil you've been
to me in the dreams and days I've lived.

Verse 4
********

And now my daughter speaks of you again
have you been to her life once more too
what for is this you've been up to now
for now she's friends who'll hold you true?

Verse 5
********

So be warned my old friend of shattered lives
and splendid dreams of fairly princes of such
that you are no longer free to run and play
with the ones we love as once you thought.

Verse 6
********

Thus now when you dare to touch my daughter
either in day or in the night, remember this
you'll be accountable for ever tear she cries
so best they be of happy and not of the sad.

Verse 7
********

I'll seek you out, for I know where you live
or better where you try to hide from all
so in your cave or mountain high above
this knight on eagles wings you will find.

Verse 8
********

Till later my old friend of dreams so many
that you've earned the title 'Dream Maker'
remember though and don't forget of me
who has known since the dawn of time.

Verse 9
*******

You see the Dream Maker is more than one would think.
Yes indeed many are
the lives touched;
some for good and some for bad.
But he is not the one
who is in control, for it is
within us to have a soul;
and dream the dreams
he cannot control. (cji)
