Aspirations

Reaching for stars is a hobby of mine,

Dreamer's delight, pastime of fools.

Bold aspirations and lofty desires

Lost in the cold cataclysmic pool

Of stark reality, raising its head,

Bringing me back to the here and now.

Yet, not losing sight of the vision before me,

Always exploring the why and the how.

 

Waiting around for good fortune to strike

Is a sad waste of time far too precious to lose.

Choices are plentiful, pathways abound in

Every direction. We need only choose

For the door to swing open and show us the way

To our very own secret desire,

Our pillar of truth, the heavenly star

To which we most humbly aspire.
