If you could see me now you'd dry those tears
where I am there's no more crying,
all darkness has faded along with my fears
with the angels of heaven my spirit is flying.
Such beauty with adequacy cannot be conveyed
In terms of your full comprehension,
walking with Jesus through his cool waters wade
now part of his family with unending extention.
I feel like a child soaring through rainbows
mesmerized by their brilliant hues,
on white clouds of cotton floating I dose
wishing somehow I could become a muse.
A shooting star beamed right into your spirit
restores bringing new inspiration,
my voice gently echoes no reason to fear it
like music banishing all desparation.
Trees sparkling a radiant emerald green
and shimmering ruby red roses,
gold streets displaying a glistening sheen
on pearly gates cherubs strike welcoming poses.
In the presence of God comes a peaceful calm
all the saints exhalt him as king,
may this glorious glimpse be a healing balm
as I return for his glory and praises to sing.
Author notes
I hope this will help all of those who have lost loved ones, knowing they are now in heaven. May you know they are at peace and in the very presence of God.May that in itself bring you peace and comfort.

I definetly like this.
I definetly like this piece because it has so much to say to a grieving person. A really good friend just lost her mother this week and another lost his wife on Tuesday. This is very comforting.
