When Heaven Calls

When heaven calls

we don't always know why

this precious soul was needed home.

 

Our hearts can't grasp the meaning

and we bear the absence

with heart floating on a sea of tears.

 

For Cathy and her family

our prayers we lift and thoughts we share

that God would give you peace in the pain,

 

May you always be wrapped in mantle of love

by those in your family.

May you ever know that your AP family cares

who are here when you seek our hugs.

 

Thou words alone can change or heal,

by a few of them perhaps,

can we hope to leave you feeling

this is your second home and not just a web site.

A small expression in hopes it lets you know how much you mean to all of us.

    You have a powerful way of touching people with words
    It is not from being smart or a good poet, but I think from being a geniune human being!!!

    My dear friend,

    This brought tears to my eyes this morning. I hope will be alright for your friend. I can so relate to the words in this wonderful read, and that is perhaps the reason the tears are falling.

    Best of luck in this contest!!

    and love my friend
