Homage to First Dreams

Tidying my work station I look at all the books
around me, Explication de texte by Boilly-Widmer,
containing some favourites: Le Ciel est par-dessus
le toit by Verlaine; Ballade des Dames du temps jadis
by François Villon, also

Astrology, Palmistry and Dreams by Donald Law –
though I use it to prop up my keyboard – still, it can
be read should I want to look up anything about
Astrogenetics and sun signs - even The Children’s
Encyclopedia is here - for remembrance

Childhood’s fantasies brought me here, I shall always
pay homage to the first dreams I had of being able to
speak in many tongues, and the music of the songs
my mother made us sing as toddlers – Frère Jacques
