Paul Laurence Dunbar - DreamsPaul Laurence Dunbar - Dreams
Work rating: Medium


Dream on, for dreams are sweet:    Do not awaken! Dream on, and at thy feet    Pomegranates shall be shaken. Who likeneth the youth    Of life to morning? `Tis like the night in truth,    Rose-coloured dreams adorning. The wind is soft above,    The shadows umber. (There is a dream called Love.)    Take thou the fullest slumber! In Lethe`s soothing stream,    Thy thirst thou slakest. Sleep, sleep; `t is sweet to dream.    Oh, weep when thou awakest!
