Vision

by

Richard Betts Jr.

The other night I had a vision
That you were at my door.
You must have floated down like an angel
Through the holes in heaven's floor.

I dreamed I scooped you up,
Cradled you in my arms,
Surrounded you with love,
Shielded you from harm.

I dreamed we cuddled close,
And I held you to my chest.
I felt the softness of your skin
Under the gentle kiss of my caress.

Soon I will awake,
And feel afresh the pain that is my prison.
I thank you, my angel,
For the healing magic of your visions.

For since you were called away,
I have found it difficult to cope.
But the enchantment of your visits
Renews my strength and hope.

As time lingers,
Still the struggle does not subside.
As I did before your birth,
I carry you inside.
