No One Expected Me

I dreamt death came the other night and Heaven’s gate opened wide;

With kindly grace an angel came and ushered me inside.

And there to my astonishment stood folks I’d known on earth;

Some I’d judged unfit; of little worth.

Indignant words rose to my lips, but never were set free;

For every face showed stunned surprise. Not one expected me!
