In my dream
An elderly gent
Flowing, white hair
Comforted me
In my despair.
Mesmerized
By his love,
His blue eyes
As heavenly
As the sky above.
Words not spoken
Filled my mind.
I understood then
His message,
His message of time.
A message of hope
And, of courage.
A message of love
And, of strength.
A message of truth.
The backbone of life
It’s in your spine.
The pain of today
Will leave with time.
God’s love will light the way.
