Title: And I Still Dream
Writer: Angela Contino Donshes

The years grow distant
and still I dream

of emerald skies
above a coral sea

and shining stars
like diamonds
in a velvet sky

of whitewashed houses
precarious
on high and verdant hills

a church bell's plaintive ring
thin and far away

of crystal waters
cool upon the lips

purple vineyards
shimmering
in early morning mist

satin petaled orange blossoms
perfumed sweet

and yellow butterflies
with lacy angel wings

sunbeams
slowly waltzing
down magic paths of gold

and gentle raindrops
jeweled tears
on dusty palid leaves

the years grow distant
and still I dream
