What If

What would it be like, through the eyes of a child 
What if,  staring into the abyss...
on a passing cloud floats a dream

~god's infinite paint brush~ 

A shadow emerges 
A symphony of angels sing, music of the night 

It was the night before Christmas 
On display, snowflakes falling everywhere... 
Dancing in the moonlight 

~Countless minutes-blown away~ 

In a perfect world, if only for a minute... 
I dreamed a dream 
The dreamer 

I feel like E.T.
