I had a dream of a park by the ocean.
All the trees stood straight,
and all the townsfolk knew my name.

All the street were parallel to each other.
Shops side by side,
under a bright blue sky.

Bricklayed side walks down every street,
in front of the general store,
everyone meets,
and greats,
sharing stories of adventure,
in an adventureless town,
down by the water.

Kids play down by the water,
where men fish for their future.
Hopes are high, hooks are low,
they fish till the sun goes down.

I look all around,
I take in the sights,
I take in the sound,
I breathe in and now,
I feel one with the town.

Do not wake me,
for I am at peace.
I am happy in the town,
I found in a dream.
