He Smiled
Brilliant path glowing white
Lined with purple flowers
Stunning contrast with the night
The stars were like showers
Is this a dream? I thought
What place am I?
A hand appeared and waved about
Bidding me come nigh
My eyes were overwhelmed
I couldn’t see clearly
Until I took a step ahead
Exploring fearlessly
I stepped upon that walkway
The hand grabbed mine
A veil cross my eyes fell away
My heart dripped with new wine
My First Love held my hand
He stood there in glory
Joy drenched holy stand
Peace in entirety
He smiled; So did I
Arm in arm we walked
The path became endless sky
We talked and talked and talked
Aware now of earthy things
My toes in the grass
In the tree a bird sings
Bees buzz and dash
Looking up at the sunny sky
My heart aches for the day
When it’s just my Jesus and I
In His arms always.
