Last Days of My Life

(3/7/12) There were days in my life that I recall When there was no hope left - no hope at all. Then my thoughts wandered to CHRIST And I felt that I was in paradise. SAINT PETER was there to meet me at Those pearly gates And I knew I was there because I never lost faith there were angels on both sides that lined The path to his throne. My family and friends were there, so I wasn’t alone. The choir of angels singing all in tune And I knew my life didn’t end too soon. The path was filled with the brightest of lights My oh my such a beautiful sight. And the trumpets blared with the most beautiful sound As the angels all gathered around. I walked up the path as if I was floating on air Because I left behind any worries and cares. Although I felt a slight pain in my heart Because I had left so many behind But I knew that they would be fine. The transition from being a mortal man To being a guiding light , had made My heart jump as it took to flight. I could now help others more than ever before For my lord had opened those doors. Our souls become like lightning bugs that light up the sky That’s what we become you and I. We light up the path for all others to see As we greet friends and family.© L .Rams
