KALEIDOSCOPE.

Stern hard face of reality

Frowning in distaste.

The frivolity

Of my ideas,

The waste!



I see in others things not found,

Perhaps they never were.

Dress the bald head

In soft tresses

Of hair.



But how sad for the poor dreamer,

From a summer's lane

To the hard streets,

Cold winter wind

And rain.



May I keep my kaleidoscope,

For when day is done

Its colours dance,

Reality

Is gone.
