Rockman Pritts Poet Couplet

Another Lamb

Golden wings with gossamer lace
Moonbeams shining from her face
Her soul is large. Her frame is frail
The time has come to lift her veil

She's spent her days in loving care
With nurse and staff and family there
But now another stands beside
He takes her hand and says, "Let's ride"

Forget the past. They'll do just fine
Your time has come to live divine
She stands on up. No ache, no pain
And smiles at her new found gain

Hand in hand they start to rise
Above the Earth. Above the skies
Time and space soon start to meld
Her only thought, the hand she held

They soon arrive at Heavens gate
The trumpets sound as they await
Another lamb into the fold
Just like the Bible stories told


Rockman  :-)

Debbie Knapp June 16, 2013 at 5:47 AM Beautiful and I know it is so. I wrote one as from the eyes of a child. He said bye to his grandma and told everyone grandma was gone she was leaving with the angels. She had passed at that very moment..
