Shall we ride
the waves like a golden sailboat
a golden railed boat
the sun?
Shall wefly
the sky like a white winged gull
a white ringed gull
a plane?

If the wind
were freer than the twinkling stars
the far-off stars
the sky,
would life be the same?

Can the stars
grant our deepest wishes true
our seceret wishes true
at night?
Some may dream
so many fantastic things
lovely dreams
I dream.
