Bob Godwin's American Dream

Words

An American Dream

The American Dream. Sitting in the sun in the slip in Key Largo, sippin' strong drink from coconut shells (With tiny umbrellas in them as well). The American Dream. Taking tourists to party on the reef during the day, then playing for them and partying the night away. The American Dream Come True? But is it real only for you? Because dreams tend to fade as you waken. As dreams tend always to do.
