Dreams

By Alan L. Strang

Away o'er the hills in the valley green Away from the noise of the busy town; I dream sweet dreams of the olden days Of you in your beautiful wedding gown. I dream that you come and sit by me And you hold my hand and ruff my hair; Your eyes shine with a sweet delight That I used to see so often there. Then my heart is filled with a hallowed love And I know t'is but a little way To the spirit land, and I know that I Shall meet you there some glad sweet day. Then our wedding day in the spirit land Will be filled with love and joy serene; And the infinite hand will guide us where The waters are still and the valleys green.
