I Dreamed a Dream
One sleep filled night I dreamed a peaceful dream,
of emerald forests and tranquil streams.
I sat beneath a bending willow tree,
with leaf filled limbs it lent its shade to me.
I heard the sweet song of a robin near,
the sound of a memory held so dear.
It reminded me of my youthful days,
it's funny how the mind in times past strays.
The wind softly blew the sweet smell of spring,
fields full of flowers, a glorious thing.
The sky blue as far as the eye could see,
I found Heaven under a willow tree.
When the morning found me beside the stream,
she woke me from my dream inside a dream.
