Dreamer by Janet Martin Fluorescent orb on velvet blue Ruler of the sky As I sit here and gaze at you I wish that I could fly And on these wings of pure fancy I think I would return To simpler days, now fantasy For which the dreamer yearns Then I would fly until I'd find Amongst the rolling hills All rich and green and cedar-lined Midst thrush and whip-poor-will A cabin left to wanderers Deserted in life's race Where I would stay and ponder Things like poetry and grace And on an evening just like this Upon its porch I'd stay Until the dawning's dewy kiss Would steal the night away In heavenly seclusion In nature's living-room The only soft intrusion Is the sound of nature's broom I think t'would be so easy then Perhaps for me to hear The voice of God a-whispering Softly in my ear But duty is a constant friend And dreaming is my foe So I leave where I first began Where God leads, I will go Ps. 46:10 |
