dearest boy,
I dreamed a dream,
you and I facing each other
in a tiny yellow boat
on green water under blue sky.
Me, you, and the yellow boat.
And we laugh
and the boat rocks
and the ripples spread
from the boat,
to pond, to sea,
the sky, and nothing
can stop them,
and nothing ever will.
When you think of me,
know that
in a world of pain...
you were and always
will be my joy.
