Nothing Ventured

Rue the day when dream is over;

Keeps returning, thick as clover.

Similar but ne’er the same;

Keep in mind, rules to this game.

Danger, danger everywhere;

Sleek, suave and debonair.

How amusing, beasts half tame;

On day born, assign a name.

Give them words and symbols plenty;

Tell them, That Night, Don’t Go Gently.

Tie them down with fear and shame;

E’er on verge of dousing flame.

Dreamers’ dream and strugglers’ struggle.

Schemers' scheme and jugglers’ juggle.

Paint is jumping: canvas, frame;

Perhaps the Artist is to blame!
