Point of View

Point of View

Sand castles in the air
and dust storms on the way
dreams make weather fair
but life will make us pay.

Happy endings abound
sometimes they really do
too often they rebound
when all is told and through.

Some will hope for colour
try always for the best
pessimist world’s duller
but outlasts all the rest.
