Brian Strand Poet Lyric

Picture This

Picture life in heaven
perhaps it's time to try
Better safe than sorry
And live with God,on high;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day

Picture there,a wedding
a supper with a feast
where the last is first
and the grandest is the least;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day

You may say I am dreaming
but I'm not the only one
I pray someday you'll join me
For I know,His will be done

Picture there a river
no curse,no day,no night
Eternally together
The Lord God gives us light;
Picture all the people,
Loving day, by day

You may say I am dreaming
but I'm not the only one
I pray someday you'll join me
For I know,His will be done


Melody ;Imagine by the Beatles

Caroline Cécile Delacroix February 6, 2010 at 8:19 PM A great write, Brian. Congrats on your win. Best wishes, Caroline.

James Fraser February 6, 2010 at 6:55 PM Nice Lyric Brian, as a music buff, the Beatles split in 1970 & and Imagine was written soley by John Lennon, it was released in Oct 71 and John did say that " to be as good as anything he had written with the Beatles " the song is allegedly inspired by Yoko Ono's poetry to her childhood in Japan. As John Miles said " Music is my first love, and it will be my last. Music of the future, and music of the past " thats me to a tee. Chowa, The Highlander >> James
