Dreams and Reality

Let dreams be our reality,
And let reality be our dreams,
They give our lives the quality,
For life itself is but a dream,
A passing fancy, so it seems,
We're here today and gone tomorrow,
We are born in joy and die in sorrow,
We never own but only borrow,
Make life only a play of joy and song,
For when that final curtain falls,
We have to move along,
From dust to dust goes our way,
Live fully, grasp each blessed day...
