Dream Images Can Change. Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Dream images can change.

She had a picture in her mind.
Of the man she hoped to find.
Someone that she could look up to.

Such was her dream although she knew.
That girlish dreams rarely come true
But she still hoped that hers might do.

There was no way she could foresee.
She would be married happily
To a man who could not be.

More different in every way
From her dream man of yesterday
But Mother Nature likes to play.

The little tricks which she employs
To bring together girls and boys.
A favourite game which she enjoys.

When she decides the time is right
All youthful dreams are put to flight.
You see things in a different light.

One day you will meet someone new.
Some man you are attracted to
Destined to fall in love with you..

I have no doubt that he dreamt too
About a girl quite unlike you.
But you met as you were meant to.

And fell in love it’s nothing new.
Though youthful dreams do not come true.
They are replaced by dreams that do.
