A LETTER FROM HEAVEN

 

  My Dearest Family,

  Some things I'd like to say

  but first of all to let you know

  that I arrived okay.

 

  I'm writing this from Heaven

  where I dwell with God above

  where there's no more tears or

  sadness, there is just eternal love.

 

  Please do not be unhappy

  just because I'm out of sight,

  remember that I'm with you

  every morning, noon and night.

 

  That day I had to leave you

  when my life on Earth was through,

  God picked me up and hugged me

  and He said "I welcome you."

 

  It's good to have you back again,

  you were missed while you were gone,

  as for your dearest family

  they'll be here later on.

 

  Then God gave me a list of things

  He wished for me to do,

  and foremost on that list of mine

  is to watch and care for you.

 

  And I will be beside you

  every day and week and year,

  and when you're sad,

  I'm standing there

  to wipe away the tear.

 

  And when you lie in bed at night,

  the days chores put to flight,

  God and I are closest to you

  in the middle of the night.

 

  When you think of my life on Earth

  and all those loving years,

  because you're only human

  they are bound to bring you tears.

 

 

 But do not be afraid to cry,

  it does relieve the pain,

  but remember there would be no flowers,

  unless there was some rain.

 

  I wish that I could tell you

  of all that God has planned,

  but if I were to tell you,

  you wouldn't understand.

 

  But one thing is for certain,

  though my life on Earth is o'er.

  I am closer to you now

  than I ever was before.

 

  And to my very many friends,

  trust God knows what is best.

  I'm still not far away from you,

  I'm just beyond the crest.

 

  When you are walking

  down the street

  and you've got me on your mind,

  I'm walking in your footsteps

  only half a step behind.

 

  And when you feel the gentle breeze

  or the wind upon your face,

  that's me giving you a great big hug

  or just a soft embrace.

 

  And when it's time for you to go

  from that body to be free,

  remember you're not going,

  you are coming here to me,

 

  And I will always love you

  from that land way up above.

  Will be in touch again soon.

  P.S. God sends His Love
