"Farewell"
I woke up looking around As I lay on a bed offluffy clouds. Then I jle-w to a golden gate with pearls on it as a golden path led me to a group ofangels coming to say hello. At last we laid on our clouds and gazed at the stars As we thought ofour good times
I dreamed my favorite dreams as others watched the shimmering moon.
