The Dream

Stanza 26

The hiss of silence in my ears
As the cold air meets my skin
My eyes search till the view clears
The dark of night begins 

Dim star light glows around me
I see them peer up and stare
I hear their whispered wishful pleas
The hopes and dreams they share 

I may not be their answer
But my presence allays their fears
For why not dream of grandeur 
While I hoist myself up here
