Would the poets dream that I could know
His eye for beauty and his love so great,
And soaring high above my selfish self,
Hear the birdling calling to his mate?

Ignoring things, useless material
That irritate and invite hatred's sting;
To see the sunshine when the storm beats wild
And on its fierce winds hear the angels sing.

To see in he who's humble and uncouth,
Light that far beneath the surface beams,
Revealing there a sould worthy, God's love.
When these are mine, I'll know the poet's dreams.
