I have a dream, and in that dream, heaven is preparing for a celebration. In the kitchen, the angels are cooking gumbo and boiling crawfish, because, after all, its heaven. In the living room, the angel band has traded in their golden harps for a fiddle, accordion, guitar, and drums. Pat and God are sitting on the front porch. After lighting up a cigar, Pat tells God about his wonderful life on Earth, and how he loved the feel of the road on those two wheels. But, he says, nothing compared to the love he still feels for his family and friends, and what he hopes, if anything, he helped them to understand what it means to love and take care of each other. As those first notes of a Cajun two-step fill the air, God smiles and says, “I have been waiting for you. Let the party begin.” Written by: Glenn Patrick Briley (Godson of Pat)
