Don’t Wake Me From This Dream

by Mark Cottman


Don’t wake me from this dream

I want it to last a little while longer

Far from challenges and disappointments

It is such a beautiful dream


Don't wake me from this dream

Where clouds make funny faces

The rain is cool and sweet

And flowers don’t make me sneeze


Don’t wake me from this dream

I will never find this place again

The unattainable bliss of perfection

In vivid colors that stimulate every emotion


Don’t wake me from this dream

Where I am never bored or tired

My favorite song is playing on the radio

And everyone says, “Good morning!”
