A Message From Heaven
Don't grieve for me because I'm gone
I'm safely in Heaven, where I'll live on
My loved ones are all so happy I'm here
I'm well taken care of, so please dry your tears.
Just give me a smile, as I look down
Be happy for me,at the peace I have found
Grandparents,cousins, loved ones of old
We all walk together, down streets of pure gold
Continue to live your lives as before
And when you come home,I'll be at the door
To welcome you in,and we'll rejoice and sing
We'll all be God's angels, spreading our wings.
So comfort yourselves,and please understand
I'm so happy here, in this promised land
Don't burden yourselves with grief and despair
Although you miss me, don't wish me back there.
I'm one of God's children, in my rightful place
And every day I can look on His face.
So cheer up Loved Ones, and please don't forget
I'm safely home, I have no regrets.

 | Doug was born 5-4-66 (his brothers and sisters teased him about that every year, saying "May the fourth" be with you) instead of Happy Birthday. He was a wonderful son, never causing me grief like so many mothers have to contend with. As a matter of fact, he placed me on a pedastal I probably don't deserve, as do my other four children. We are strong survivors but our circle has been broken for a while. We all speak of Doug often, never omitting him for a day, for he is still such a part of our lives. |
