Dreamer

by Michelle Lachut
(Holly, Michigan)

pretends as if
is as though
wishes that
what's not
was so
speaks to the sky
asks petals of flowers
talks all alone
converses for hours
says goodnight to dawn
and dreams all day
inspired steps meet
forewished conditions
believes as if
lives as though
there is a way
as yet to know
a road, a chance
for every star
and only dreamers go
