In my dreams Envoloped in darkness Within a house That intended to portray The house of the dead Never seen in reality Ominous and cold A basket with clothes Belonging to my Grandfather Laying near the place of flames Awake I could see all of this Right in front of me I heard chattering of voices Looking up I saw outside There were familar faces Only two I wanted to see The others do not matter to me My Grandparents with love Aunt, Uncle and Cousins Not vanishing away A few moments later They entered the darkness Grandmother sits in a chair Beckons to me to come I am not a child This running through my veins She says sit on my lap I do as she asks Not understanding Not wanting to stay I woke up right then And wanted to pray That I would never have another Of these dreams come my way "Somewhere, somehow, it should be possible to touch someone and never let go again. To hold someone, not for a moment but forever." Unknown |

Makes me want to write..! Sorry, I should say too... It hit a little to close to home for me but I love this. If only I could have been there. Very good good work if you ask me. Smile Dale [This message has been edited by lucky (edited 10-10-2000).] |

A lovely dream I'm sure many of us could relate to, and you tell the tale so well. Dee |
