Day 16: The Dream by The Moody Blues
The Dream
Written by The Moody Blues Graeme Edge (their Drummer) and Janis Ian.
It's a short poem for sure but they manage to cover love, life ,death and the seasons! Enjoy...
When the white eagle of the North is flying overhead
And the browns, reds and golds of autumn lie in the gutter dead
Remember then the summer birds with wings of fire flaying
Came to witness springs new hope, born of leaves decaying
And as new life will come from death
Love will come at leisure
Love of love, love of life and giving without measure
Gives in return a wondrous yearn for a promise almost seen
Live hand in hand and together we'll stand
On the threshold of a dream
