the impossible dream

a circle that cannot be broken
a breath with the hint of a sigh
a sentence that cannot be spoken
a question that has no reply

a straw that is steadily sinking
a hope that is fading away
an eye that is constantly blinking
a dawn that will never be day

a life that is clouded with sorrow
a flower that dies in the sun
a yesterday but no tomorrow
a race that can never be run

a heart that will always be waiting
a cool breeze that blows and is still
a string that has ceased its vibrating
and a shadow on top of a hill


Yvonne J Day 1977
