Things Meant To remain Dreams

Back in the old days, when young is what I thought I would always be, there were so many things I dreamed of doing. All wonderful, exciting things, things a person of my age and means would normally never experience. You see there were parents, teachers, preachers and guilt that stood between want and having. Now hovering nearer old than I thought I would ever be and years past when the words of parents, teachers and preachers were said, there are still wondrous dreams and exciting things I have yet to do. Alas, there is still guilt  and enough memory to steer my path toward those things that should be and away from those things meant to remain dreams.
