"To Dream of an Angel"

cji
4/5/99

Verse 1
********

The night was quiet and clear.
You could hear nature in the sounds of
the summer song of crickets and frogs.
The moon full and warm to light above.

Verse 2
********

To dream now was of an angel
and most on my mind at this time;
as when I'm alone and sleepy
my angel Joyce Anne comes to mind.

Verse 3
********

An angel seen from close or a far;
she at work is dressed in white.
While others sleep and dream tonight
I will dream to seek her to hold me tight.

Verse 4
********

So when I dream I don't forget
to dream of angels, more than one
for with Joyce the day is the same
in her presence I feel the spirit near.

Verse 5
********

Yet of the sisters in my life are many
who now have called me brother
and each an angel a rustling to hear
watching, caring protecting over me.

Verse 6
********

Thus when they bid me sweet dreams
of an angel of which they are one,
I seek to do their bidding and know so well,
my loving angel first named Joyce Anne.
