Angel's Dream.

Here is all the heaven one might hope,
A cornucopia of circumstance.
Praised be those who can with heaven cope,
Pleased with each day's blessings in advance.
Yet there are those who look at life askance.
Nor is heaven anywhere but here --
In your love and gentleness of heart.
None who dwells there happily need fear
The pain that tears self-centered souls apart,
Hard put to find content in life or art.
