The Street of Dreams

I recently completed an illustration for one of my poems from the family poetry book I'm working on, "Measure of Man." Here is the poem and the illustration:

The Street of Dreams by Beverly Chick

Walking down the street of dreams,

I saw you standing there.

We walked together down city blocks,

past cafes, streets and shops.

We spoke of many things

without a thought of time

And for a short but memorable day,

I could pretend that you were mine.

You filled my mind with creative thoughts,

Just like a special muse.

My heart would soar with endless joy,

No longer in recluse.

Walking down the street of dreams,

I see you standing there.

Then I awake---you're gone again

And sadness fills the air.
