An Eagle For Last Time
My heart sailed so high in the sky
And under me my soul passed by
It was small like a single splinter
Into heaven again it would enter.
While on earth much sadness I had
Even tough I never did anything bad
What was it I might have done wrong
Based on this I started writing this song.
An eagle for last time he had screeched
When heaven again finally would reach
Wings spread outward into the spirited air
Flapping sounds with us He now did share.
Felt breeze gently blowing against my face
Every feather was found in perfect place
God said my soul had been set free
And the eagle had actually been me.
My sadness turned to happiness instead
And after I finally found myself dead
Even though for years I had grieved
I was in heaven and now felt relieved.
Comments would be appreciated.
