Only the Beginning

Only the Beginning Do not weep for me For now it is heaven I see Glorious fields of green And oceans blue Twinkling stars in the sky On angels’ wings I now fly Do not weep for me my darling one I am forever in your heart Heaven – once a mystery Is now just a start And once again we shall meet Until that time comes Smile for me Dance for me Be light on your feet For when you think of me I’ll be thinking of you Jennifer Leigh Turner

Many thanks to you all. I wrote this poem after a dear friend lost her battle with cancer. I framed it and gave it to her teenage son, her mother and brother. I am truly honored to have this poem recognized. Best to you all, Jen

Hi SKAT! Thank you for your nice comment. This poem was written for the mother, son and brother of a dear friend who lost her battle with cancer a few months ago. My hope was that this poem might bring them peace in their time of loss.
