FROZEN DREAM (Monday Poem)

by Shel Silverstein


I'll take the dream I had last night
And put it in my freezer,
So someday long and far away
When I'm an old grey geezer,
I'll take it out and thaw it out,
This lovely dream I've frozen,
And boil it up and sit me down
And dip my old cold toes in.



from A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein, 1981, Harper & Row
