I woke this morning from a deep sleep,
with a tear in my eye, and emotion so deep.
Trying to remember all of my dreams,
hoping that all was as it seemed.
Had my mother visited me ? and my dad as well?
With gran and granpa speaking, clear as a bell.
Did my daughter cuddle me, with a touch so fine.
Telling me that she, would always be mine.
Friends whom I have not seen for many a long year,
surounding me with love, holding me dear.
Showing me that life goes on, that love never ends.
that all hurt and anguish will, with time, mend.
They gave me so much comfort, I didn't want to wake.
But it's not my time, for God my soul to take.
And that is why i woke with a tear in my eye,
But it won't be for long, it's only a short goodbye...
