Barry's Dream

Across the vast blue oceans
you dreamed, one day, to cruise
Enjoying God's creation
wherever you did choose
From San Diego southward
to the sparkling Sea of Cortez
Your heart compels you seaward
no matter what anyone says
For in you is a yearning
to experience life on the sea
Each new day you'll be learning
anticipating what next will be
So, on this journey I join you
giving my fears to the Lord to bear
For your happiness is not all yours
but also mine to share
Living this dream with you, my love,
is my privilege and gift to you
I know that God will be with us
for His promises are true
So, let the winds take us
from shore to distant shore
I know where my true home is-
with you and our precious Lord

Love,

Stacey
