August 17Th would have been
my 30Th anniversary~~~~
And every year I try to
write a poem about my husband.
This time the poem is about a dream~~~~
Several friends that I have told about the dream
wrote poems about it~~~and they are on this site, too.
And now I want to share that dream with you~~~
Dreaming Tenderly
I had a dream about you last night,
It was so real, I could feel your touch.
You came into my room and wakened me,
(I haven't been sleeping much~~~).
You looked so tall, so handsome,
So strong, in your eye's I could perceive
That look of 'self-assurance':
That look that makes me believe!!!
You scoffed at my surprise, and then,
You calmed my every fear,
You gently held me in your arms,
And wiped away each tear.
You told me things were happening
That were a part of God's Master Plan,
And that I should be content to just
Do whatever it is that I can....
There are things I cannot change,
No matter how hard I pray~~~
God will make something good of
everything, If His Will, I will obey.
You told me that it won't be long
Before we can dance again,
Then you reached for my hand~~~
And I stood up~~~to follow you right then!!!
You touched my face, and cradled me
Against your chest for a moment, still~~~
"Not Yet, My Love" was all you said,
"We must wait for God's Perfect Will"
I awoke from this dream and firmly believe
That you were right here with me,
Your Sweet scent,like perfume, flowered the room,
I still feel your caress; o, so tenderly.
