Rising Dreams Poem by Craig Piercy

As the sun rises, so do our dreams
Our dreams of all the nice things
Our dreams of all the right things

When the sun rises, you feel on such a high
Expectations galore, expectations to die for

Anticipation of a new day
So bring it on, come what may

You look out on the day, sun beaming in your window
Rays filling your body with warmth
Freshness and hope
That beautiful sunlight, that beautiful sun
Putting a smile on your face as your mind drifts off into space

What fun is in store for you today?
What fun can you have as you call out to your partner for the breakfast tray?

So up the sun comes, rays flowing in
Thoughts running wild, a new day begins
You're both lying there with grins

Eating breakfast together
Really enjoying the warm weather
Treating each other with love, gentleness
Touching each other as light as a feather

All this as the sun rises
So do our dreams!
