Gentle Streams by John IlotanCome with me
through the gate
when you're tired
when it's late
Fly with me
on crystal wings
from the pain
this world can bring
Take my hand
hold on fast
we'll visit dreams
we thought had past
My dreams come true
but just in dreams
so tears slide down
in gentle streams
See the world
through my eyes
and learn that life
is all sweet lies 04/22/2003 Author's Note: I wrote this about 20 years ago.
