Bad Poetry: Never Too Old to Dream

This week's Poets & Storytellers United prompt invites reflections on a quote, "You are never too old...to dream a new dream."

Lady, Lady, dream again;

Not all dreams need notice men;

Short-lived creatures leave us here

To our own dreams, without fear.

Turn back to the dreams of youth;

Own your strength; proclaim your truth.

Men brought joy and likewise woe.

Easily come, they easily go.

Own your castle on the hill;

Travel wide and travel far;

Toil like an industrial mill;

Idle like a movie star;

Though we feel we're made for love,

Soon we're called to rise above,

Call in dreams that long have flown,

Rise with them, once we're alone.
