Dreams by Priscilla Ahn
I was a little girl alone in my little world who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees, and fed my houseguests bark and leaves, and laughed in my pretty bed of green.
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing.
I had a dream.
Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park, I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me, God answered in silent reverie. I said a prayer and fell asleep.
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.
Now I'm old and feeling grey. I don't know what's left to say about this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well, there's many tales I've lived to tell. I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing.
I had a dream
I have always dreamt that I could fly. In many of my dreams I am flying about the trees over people, land, homes, just about anything that is part of the dream. I am helping others as I fly, often carrying them and giving them a safe landing. I was told by a psychic once that I have a healing spirit, I wonder if that is what my spirit does while I sleep, help and heal others. I can relate to the words of this song, except for being ready to leave, not quite there yet.
