The Letter

Dear Child, This I must write, I have to go to Heaven It must be tonight. God has called me To join the angels there But oh don't fret, For the land is so fair. The walls are of jasper The streets are of gold The gates are of pearl The sights are untold. I'm not worried For Jesus will be there There will be laughter And singing everywhere. I'll tell our loved-ones Hello for you When you get there, You can tell them, too. My body will no longer Feel this pain Joy and peace I now will obtain. Please don't shed Any tears, For I've been awaiting This moment For many years.
