Mother hears a choir singing, or so she tells us from her hospice bed, she also hears the church bells ringing to mark the trailhead ~ farther on the path she knows leads home. She is content with the life she’s known, with few regrets she packs her bags to move to her celestial home built so long ago, Mother says the angels reassure her there is nothing left to prove, come greet your friends and family in heavenly tableau.
