I got a call late one night this week that my mother had passed away. I laid in bed trying to wrap my mind around this news. Although expected, I felt a little lonely. Stories of the past came flooding in. I thought about the joy that now surrounded her and wrote the following.
Heaven
God called out your name.
He came and took you home.
Your flame burned out,
But you live on.
Every tear wiped away,
And every fear forever gone.
Now you rejoice in His love,
Surrounded in joy.
You took His hand
And entered heaven's gates.
You saw the face of Christ,
And eternity in His eyes.
You danced on clouds
And celebrated your new life.
The angels sang,
Flutes and harps, too.
Surrounded in love, forevermore.
Loved ones gathered 'round,
Family and friends reunited,
As you celebrated heaven's bliss.
How amazing it is
To see the love in God's eyes.
How wonderful it will be,
To live with Him always.
