One Way Or Another Poem by Denis Martindale

Within the dream I had last night,
I saw a somewhat silly sight,
Confusing though in black and white...
Two street signs pointing left and right...
If I went right, could that prove wrong?
My confidence was not that strong...
I stood there standing all night long...
Until I heard a lovely song...

Two angels then appeared to me,
Both singing in sweet harmony...
About my perfect destiny...
If I went right with certainty...
So I went right, yes, right away...
There seemed no reason to delay...
While Jesus told me I must pray...
And told me all the words to say...

And so I prayed with all my might,
Yes, from then on and through the night...
Awakened by the morning light...
With wondrous, precious new insight...
No matter where I choose to go,
The Lord above is bound to know...
Each choice has blessings meant to flow...
Meant for my good... so faith might grow...
