Little girl why do you stare
Where are you now my child
Can you not see your works undone
And life’s passing away
Oh sir, I see such beauty
Of things so rich and fair
I’m in a place of wonder
Where life never passes away
I see oceans of blue
And mountains high
Flowers reach beyond the sky
I hear music in trees
And wonderful things
Please do not hinder me
Daydreamer~
Mountain climber~
Achiever of all you seek~
We’ve reached the moon
And far beyond
Cause that’s what dreamers do
My dreams are real
So do not steal
The light from within my soul
For I am soaring in a distant place
A world invisible to those who see
Only obtained by faith
I’m one of a kind who dare to reach
Far beyond their grasp
I’m a dreamer of dreams
And without such as me
This world would be dark and bleak
Allow me my dreams
Do not disturb what God has put within
For as a dreamer; He, breathed in me,
And watched new life begin

(Joseph) “Here comes that dreamer!” they said to each other. Genesis 37:19
He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. There above it stood the Lord, and he said: “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” Genesis 28:12-15 New International Version (NIV)
To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning. And Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds. Daniel 1:17 New International Version (NIV)
Beautiful, Marla.
