If you haven't read Part I yet, you can here: /pip/Forum106/HTML/002781.html

And here's Part II:

"The Dreamer" Part II

With diligence divine the night still came
And tortured him within its cruel game
Yet differently from all the other times
Another force appeared to make its claim

To dreaming eyes, so full of pain and tears
It seemed an ancient angel had appeared
With beard of white and eyes of steely grey
Assuaging all his agony and fear

And from this ancient stranger glowed a light
That pierced the shadows of the dreamer’s night
And before it fled the darkness and the pain
Replaced, instead, by warmth and comfort bright

The man, still slumbering peacefully then asked:
“How is it that this thing has come to pass?
Are you an angel, sent from Heav’n above
By God’s own hand to rescue me at last?”

To be continued...

AMdG

"My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends--it gives a lovely light!"  -Edna St. Vincent Millay
