Willamina the Dreamer

Willamina dreams.
Sometimes Willamina dreams that she’s a rock star, or a famous hip-hop singer, a model or a kapahaka dancer… Willamina dreams.
Sometimes Willamina dreams that she’s a doctor, or a scientist, a school teacher or an Olympic swimmer… Willamina dreams.
Sometimes Willamina dreams that she can’t drive but she can run.
She’s a mermaid, or she’s a princess… Willamina dreams.
Sometimes Willamina dreams that she’s a hairdresser, or a shopkeeper.
She’s in a strange forest, or swimming with dolphins… Willamina dreams.
Sometimes Willamina dreams of gigantic spiders, or mythical creatures.
She dreams of yesterday… and, sometimes, of tomorrow.
