Catalina's Milky Way Dreams(c) Re- Written 2024 - By The Depressed Poet, Doc Dalton
Shooting Stars and fast moving CarsRumble through the roads of my mindTick-e-ty Tock, the old sounds of the clockSay's it's almost a quarter past nine
The moons surely rising, the stars are a glidingAnd Mr. Sandman is ready to roamHurry off to bed and put your pillow under your headHe might just be visiting you tonight at homeDrifting off to sleep is such a wonderful featAdventures you'll enjoy on your ownMaking new friends on a journey to no endA secrete life that is yours all aloneDon't be afraid of those gobble lee goo'sOr those pirates drifting to sea on their boatsThere's no need to worry there just in your dreamsLike rainbow clouds and cotton candy floatsOh that sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerPlease, don't take my Dreams a wayTo see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way DreamsWe could have so much funUnder an ice cream sun and laugh our time awaySing some M & M songs the whole day longUntil we awake to brand new day
Pluto say's hey kiddo don't get out of bedAs Snakel Puss laughs and says, ah it's OKKKKKKKKPopeye yell's, were gone in a minute after I eat me spinachPoo say's all aboard my Banana Split SleighOh that Sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerWorry not Catalina, we won't take your Dreams a way
To see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way Dreams
Catalina say's, please come join me, on my Milky Way Dreams
Come in old friend, sit back and rest here for a while, for you look tired and torn so relax and cherish this calming time the Lord has given you. For your journey must have been a long one yet rewarding after all those miles. Through those valleys and countless mountains, you had to climb. I pray your trip was a good one, and you found each step worthwhile. For you were guided by the love of God who watched over you each and every mile.
The folks here said they have missed you along with your wonderful stories you have so kindly shared that seem to make them smile. Your friendship and kindness to those are one that's nothing short of a blessing, like the love of a child. Put your feet up by the fire, let the heat warm your bones. Let the crackling sooth your spirit and while the flames my friend, will calm your soul. For your travels have ended and you are now safe and no longer alone. Let the angels hold you tightly and shelter you from the harsh nighttime cold. For today has come to a close and tomorrow will be here so very soon. And a new sun will shine, while the northern winds roll on through. For now, dream your dreams safe and warm from that nighttime stormy sky. For it's time to say goodnight to your troubles and for today, just say goodbye.
Just know that it is the light of the Lord that guides us through our nights and all our days. Take comfort in knowing that the uncertain path you may have chosen, Jesus was by your side every step of the way. You were never lost or alone, so there were no worries or times of despair. So, understand that you were always safe and never alone, because through your entire journey, Jesus cared.
It is now time for me to say, I am so happy to see you my old friend, for your journey must have been so very long, after all those miles. Put your feet up on this old wooden stool next to the fire and let the heat warm your bones. For your travels have come to an end and you are now safe, so let me be the first to say my friend, WELCOME HOME.
