Analysis of A Dreamer Of Dreams



Outside my door was a rainbow of color
 I'd never seen before,
 Then God saw fit to deliver you,
 right to my very door

He set the color of blue in your eyes
 through which I now see summer skies
 The color of pink upon your cheek
 that keeps me smiling through the week

The color of night on your downy head,
 which rests so quietly upon your bed
 Your skin is snowy white
 and shines translucent in the light

You are a true cherubic delight
 Your lip was formed from an angel's wing
 and when you laugh I hear them sing
 The colors in my life now have a special ring !
