Christmas In Heaven

This year,
it is very clear.
I must not have any fear,
for you my dear.
You will not be here,
the angels are singing in my ear.
Heaven is now where you appear,
no pain just peace and it is all very clear.
It takes some effort to accept the cheer,
your voice I want to hear.
Heaven is filled with beauty,
the flowers smell so very fruity.
Loving everyone here is our duty,
no one here is snooty.
I know you miss me,
but I am now free.
I can fly like a big yellow bee,
then pray to God on my knee.
I want you to see,
one day we will have a cup of Christmas tea.

Note: I lost my best friend in Oct.
Yesterday, I called a dear friend.
I wanted to drop off a Christmas gift.
With tears in her voice,
she told me she had just lost her best friend.
Her son...............
