PRACTICAL DREAMERS
neither of us are children
weve been around the block
a time or two
known how it feels to love
and be loved
had our hearts broken
more than once
both of us have been sailing
the sacred seas of sorrow
deep rivers of pain
neither of us have forgotten
how to smile, how to laugh
we remember well young desire
and how to embrace life
and though neither of us are
young anymore, experience,
perhaps eclipses youth
for there are no more illusions
to bruise our hearts
no inabilities to face realities
or to nurture dreams
and you are the sweetest dream
this man has entertained
in many long years
