I was watching as the sun set,

 Low at the beach,

Thinking about things that are to seek,

I thought about a lot of things and one was my dream.

I  thought about life

and the things that happen day and night,

and about the things

that don't always go just right.

As I walked along the ocean strand,

I looked up and saw a man.

I knew who he was, for I had been praying

and he knew everything I had been saying.

He asked me, even though he knew,

"What's troubling you my child?"

He helped me understand all I had gone through,

After we talked we said our good byes.

I saw a light in the sky as white as a dove,

Showing me he had gone back to heaven above.
