RE-ENGINEERING DREAMS

RE-ENGINEERING DREAMS

Got thinking last night while wide awake,

About fulfilling of dreams…

Sometimes it is strange the paths we take

In engineering schemes.

–

I have a bedside train set,

That doesn’t run a bit…

I spend time working on the track

And want to then change it!

–

Shifting buildings, track and trains,

Not making the thing run…

Makes me wonder about the pains

It takes to get something done.

–

Now…POETRY…is not the same,

It springs at times like weeds…

It doesn’t take a technical brain

To satisfy one’s needs.

–

I’ll keep working on the trains,

Some day I’ll see the light….

Of a running train at last

Before I say, “good night”.
