For All the World To See

I had a dream the other night
An angel came to me in white.
She took me by her gentle hand
Saying, "I'll show you things that are so grand."

She took me to the mountain tops.
We flew above the seas.
Then we viewed the forest,
So beautiful and green.

In this dream she walked with me
As we entered a beautiful meadow.
She said, "His love and inspiration
are for all the world to see.
Come and close your eyes, dear child,
Come dream awhile with me.
Lay your head upon my lap.
It's softness is your pillow,"
As she sang me to sleep
beneath the weeping willow.

The butterflies danced in delicate flight.
She showed me the beauty of all the flowers.
She said, "They are for all the world to see.
You can pick yourself a beautiful bouquet,
If your heart, it does please.

Her voice was like music,
The sweetest my ears had ever heard.
How she made my inspired heart to sigh,
I listened to every word.

We both looked up at the heavenly clouds
Watching the gentle breeze push them by.
I asked this beautiful angel,
"Will I ever get my wings and fly?"
The angel smiled at me and said,
"Yes, my dear sweet child."

As we watched the birds
Fly near the rainbow up above,
We both knew God had blessed us
With all His care and love.

As we viewed His artistry
Of so many splendid colors
I looked at her and said,
"For all the world to see,
It's not just in the meadow,
But it's also in you and me.
It's when our spiritual embracement
Adds beauty to our life.
When we truly believe in God,
Our hearts will seek His light."

I bowed my head and thanked Him
For the love He has bestowed.
His way will be for eternity,
This my heart does truly know.

Then I gently awoke,
There was such sweetness in the air.
I put my hands up to rub my eyes.
I felt something in my hair.
A single white blossom from a heavenly rose
That an angel so graciously shared.
