Yes kuya, it's nice to dream once-in-a-while
Like you, I used to dream about us
Of happy things we can do together
For it costs us nothing to dream.
Like you, I dreamed of us walking in your farm
As we see the beauty of the sun rise in the morning
Slowly feeling its gentle heat on our skin
Feeling the fresh breeze upon our face.
See the beautiful hue of sun setting at dusk
Enjoy the beauty of nature's painting in the sky
As you give your ading a backride home
Enjoy dinner of freshly harvested greens.
I dreamed of the flowers you used to tell me
Like you, I see you pick and give them to me
I see the animals of the woods by your yard
Coming to say hello before they retire.
It's nice to think the dreams you dream of us
Seated by the tree shade at the golf course
Sipping ice cold peach tea after your golf
Enjoy the fresh wind and bright sun.
But all these kuya I ceased to dream
Didn't you tell me to enjoy what we have now?
Yes, I am enjoying what we have now
Minus the dreams for they mean nothing.

Soon I shall say my goodbye
Not because I love you less, my dear
But because I love you more each day
A fact I could not comprehend.
You are a total stranger to me
Yet I long to belong to you
Curl in your arms when I am cold
Draw strength from you when I have fears.
With you I want to be a kid once more
Listen to stories that made you who you are today
As I will lovingly look at them in your eyes
Yes, with you I will be a kid once more.
But soon, I shall say my sad goodbye
Before loving you has become too much to bear
Before I will be misunderstood and become spiteful
Yes, very soon, I must have the courage to say goodbye.

He says he loves her
So she thinks he is in love
No. Brotherly love.
Realizing she is wrong
She is laughing at herself.

So white thick snow
Seems to stay forever
When it rains, it’s gone.

Turkeys from the woods
Come to visit dear old Jim
Amidst thick snow.

Last night's fine shower
Dampened the hot summer night
refreshed a tired heart.

**Tiny dew glisten
Settled on the crisp green leaf
A new dawn’s wonder.**

Birds from a distance
Come to seek a warmer place
A beautiful view.
