An Egyptian Queen

An Egyptian Queen As I Fall asleep within this hour To slowly leave this realm I see my mother with serenity and great power She is calm and ready to take the helm Like queen Nefertiti, she sits upon a high throne of golden wood It seems as if she has crossed over into another life She has a high crown upon her head and is not misunderstood Here at last; there is peace, love, happiness and no strife I stare intently at her face She looks ageless, beautiful and humble And I feel that she belongs in this place As she speaks to me, without even a murmur or a mumble. Now i know that she is perfectly alright And I hope that she is in seventh Heaven Because she has fought the good fight And must be in another dimension as she moves towards the number eleven The message she tries to send me I hear without her voice She tells me to go on living, stop being sad and be free And that I must remember, I have a choice The path that I must take is very clear For she has gone home to be with the father and the Father And can no longer live in this dimension down here So she says goodbye and fades away, my mother.
