I can't remember if I posted this before... but it is a poem I really like by John Masefield
I have seen flowers come in stony places,
And kind things done by men with hard faces,
And the Gold Cup won by the worst horse at the races,
So I trust, too.

What if you slept? And what if in your sleep you dreamed?
And what if in your dreams you went to
heaven and there you plucked a strange and
beautiful flower?
And what if when you awoke you
had the flower in your hand?
Ah! What then?
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
