A Dream Poem by Gert Strydom

Like a blue white lightning bolt
hitting one of us
from a clear blue sky,

or a meteorite falling flaming
out of a tranquil black night
right on our house
without a chance in a million

I dreamt of you
even years before us meeting
and that dream came true
right out of the blue.

I believe that our lives are fixed
by more than stars,
by more than mere chance,

by powers far greater
than just destiny
and that God holds His mighty hand
over you and me,
that the Lord straightens the way
and lays it out.
