An Awesome Book by Dallas Clayton

There are places in the world where people do not dream

of Rocket-Powered Unicorns

and candy cane machines

of magic watermellon boats

and musical baboons

or teeny tiny trumpet players training pet racoons

there are places in the world where people dream up dreams so simply un-fantasical and practical they seem

to lose all possibility of thinking super things

of dancing wild animals with dianmond-coated wings

instead they dream of furniture of buying a new hat

of owning matching silverware. could you imagine that?

instead they lay awake at night wishing for a car, not one that runs on jellybeans... but one that's regular

they dream of breakfast sandwiches, they dream of telephones, sometimes they even dream of dreams that aren't even their own

yes there are places in the world where dreams are almost dead. so please my child do keep in mind before you go to bed

to dream a dream as big as big could ever dream to be

then dream a dream ten times as big as that one dream you see

then once you've got that dream in mind please dream a million more and not a million quiet dreams a million dreams that ROAR

a million dreams so loud they scream so loud they sing and shout

so super huge they say "hey world! guess what i'm dreamin' bout"

i'm dreaming about everything that no one thought to wonder. dreams so big that they've got dreams and they've got dreams up under

please dream for those who've given up for those who've never tried

please use your dreams to make new dreams for all the dreams that died

cause you're the one whose dreams can be whatever dreams you want

whose dreams can change the way things are

and if they say that all your dreams are too big too come true you tell them that i told you

that's what dreams are meant to do! they 're meant to make you seem as if you don't know up from down

because dreams are dreams and that's why dreams are worth having around

so when you think your dreaming's done just remember what i said

close your eyes my child and dream that perfect dream inside your head

the end
