Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wim´s Whims The Doctor´s Dream. Last evening I was talking With a doctor aged and gray, Who told me of a dream he had, I think ´twas Christmas day. While snoozing in his office The vision came to view, For he saw an angel enter, Dressed in garments white and new. Said the angel: "I´m from heaven; The Lord just sent me down To bring you up to glory And to put on your golden crown. You´ve been a friend to every one And worked hard night and day; You have supported many thousand, And from few received your pay. So we want you up in glory, For you have labored hard, And the good Lord is preparing Your eternal just reward." Then the doctor and the angel Started up to glory´s gate, But when passing close too Hades, The angel murmured, "Wait!" "I have a place to show you - It´s the hottest place in H -, Where the ones that never paid you In torment always dwell." And behold! the doctor saw there His old customers by the score, And grabbing up a chair and fan, He wished for nothing more, But was bound to sit and watch them As they´d sizzle, singe and burn. And his eyes would rest on debtors Whichever way they´d turn. Said the angel, "Come on, doctor; There´s the pearly gates to see." But the doctor only muttered, "This is heaven enough for me."
