T’was early this morning that my journey began; it was a visit that would take me up to yonder land.
The Trees swayed and said: please don’t leave us as we too are in a visiting mood.
As I went along the way I heard the Birds call: wait for us, we too are going to visit.
Then beyond me I heard the Sea roar and said, please don’t leave without me.
As I sought to take my flight, Wind said: I will take you higher. Then Sun said: I will take you in.
We passed through the Orion, and the entire starry host winked at me and said: we too are going to visit.
Together we all went in and clasped our hands in awe. Then the Waters clapped their hands as they beheld the glorious scene. The Trees swayed in much appreciation of the sight that they saw. The Birds clad in choir-like gowns prepared for their anthem song.
Suddenly, flew open was a great door, out of which marched an angelic throng. In their magnificent array they led the way from which we fell in line. They passed from one glory to the next. We watched in awe as they gracefully trooped along.
The Wind whispered: be still! The Sea replied: Can I be still when I am about to behold He who stills the storm; yea, He who causes me to flow? I must roar; it is likened unto this angelic song.
Awe struck I was about to speak when one who looked like the Son of Man came forth in shining glory.
Then I awoke out of my sleep.
