Poem
A few days ago your battle with MS ended And your last breath was drawn You peacfully closed your eyes And your final journey carried you Home. You went to be with your Saviour As he awaited you on His Throne Your struggles of this earth were over For He sent His Son to rescue you And gently placed you in His arms. Your body now so small and flare And with no strenght left to live... Accepted His out stretched arms And away He took you Departing as the Dove....... 'The Dove Thats' Controlled by God's Will' He carried you to see your earthly father Whom you lost suddenly as a very young man God knew how you had loved and missed him So He placed Mr. Luker right within your palmed hand. Your three sons ( the second of which I barred) Were all there with you When the 'Death Angel' Made It's way into the room. Each with tears of pain rolling down their cheeks Helplessly watching knowing nothing Could be done to keep their daddy from leaving that room Each trying to prepared themselves For what lay just hours ahead. They sat with each other As each one fought hard to be a strong man Each one knowing they were losing their daddy And also losing their best friend. Trying to remain strong for little sister Knowing she and her mom were on their way For they knew she was too young to understand And they would have to chose the right words to say. To tell her of ........ This 'Final Journey Home' and it's departure Of Life and Death.... The 'Journey' her daddy (and she must be told) Has aboarded and he has already left. Jimmy rest in peace now and move about in 'Your Heavely Home' You have lefted behind alot of 'Widsom and Knowledge' As you were struggling daily to live.... But accept your Rewards now and rejoy in the Lord..... You're in Heaven now..........Where there is no more pains.......... There is no more burdens.....There is no more worries....... It is finally all over. Look below now and see all is o.k. After all, don't you remember talking to and teaching your children And telling strangers About our Almightly God? And about the Lord? I will always remember you, Cecilia Jimmy died April 16, 2008 after 22 years of living with MS. He fought a hard battle till the end.
