Awakened

From a deep sleep you suddenly awake You blink your eyes and try to get your mind straight The room is pitch black and the moonlight is beaming through the window pane Like clockwork you hear the sound of a distant train The bible still in place right beside where I lay my head It stays there always to be touched and read It's a comfort and security and at a hands reach For it is one item dear to my heart that I always keep Blinking your eyes to try and clear the haze You then think hard to remember the day Up to the restroom and a glass of water to wet your mouth You climb back into your bed and off to a slumber you are out Mind is calm and blessings are thanked for to the man upstairs For one day soon, I know I'll be there Tammy Arrowood 1/11/2017??
