Poem
From the ashes of winter
Comes the beauty of spring
After the cold
Warmth, sunshine does bring

Winters crumpled leaves are like ashes
Lying on the ground
Eventually new plant life appears
And springs greenery abounds

Life also changes
Just as the seasons do
Cycles of life
Mama and Daddy went through

They each had a long life
Full of moments good and bad
Sometimes they were happy
Sometimes they were sad

At different times in their life
They each accepted Christ's loving call
At death they would see Heaven
Because Jesus gave His all

As they accepted the gift of salvation
Their hearts joyfully soared
Knowing an eternity in Heaven
Would one day, be their reward

For Mama sickness was like winter
Cold and dark
But she knew on a joyful journey
She soon would embark

For Daddy sickness was like winter
Dark and cold
But he knew Heavenly wonders
He soon would behold

Much pain and suffering
They each endured
But by the blood of Jesus
Their souls were insured

As their lives each drew closer
And closer to an end
We all knew soon, life's last breath
They would expend

When to a life of sickness
They could no longer cling
I imagine they heard the flutter
Of sweet angel wings

They each knew death to them
Sickness would bring
But they did not fear the pain
Of death's lonely cold sting

For they each were saved
By God's wonderful grace
They would meet death
Wrapped in God's loving embrace

As the death angel
Took them, each gently away
They entered the land
Of bright eternal day

As they entered eternal happiness
Their souls began to sing
They were now in the presence
Of Jesus the Heavenly King

Their cycle of life
Was now complete
They were now a part
Of Heaven's elite

Death had taken them
To beautiful Heaven above
They would be forever ensconced
In God's pure love

Meeting Jesus in Heaven
Their hearts leapt
Angels led the way
As they each stepped

Through the scattered ashes of winter
That sickness did bring
Into the majestic beauty
Of Heaven's glorious eternal spring
