Notes About The Poem

In My Dreams

In My Dreams
 
As I walked along the beach today
My eyes drawn to the sand
A precious stone gleamed at me
Perched on a golden band

I looked around this early morn
But no one was in sight
No soul to claim this treasure trove
And so I thought I might

As I pluck it from the surf
My fortune seemed complete 
So I strolled up to a mound of sand
And there I took a seat

That's when I held it in my hand
And rolled it to and frow
As the Sun lit up the gold
And made the Diamond glow

It was then as if a shadow came
and covered my delight
To think my gain was someone loss
It didn't seem quiet right

I did not know the reasons
It wasn't on Her hand
Or how it came to be, to me
Half hidden in the sand

But when I stood, and turned for home
I saw Her standing, who
With hand out stretched and fingers spread
She softly said " I Do "
