God Has Called Me Home

When your head is bent in sadness And your heart is breaking in two, Remember our good times together And the love I had for you. Remember the laughter not sorrow, Remember the sunshine not rain, For our time on earth is much too short For us to dwell on the pain. We all come into this world Filled with hopes and dreams which we weave. We laugh, we dance, we sing, we cry, Then it's time for us to leave. So live your life with gladness Taking each day what may come. And do not think of me in sadness For God has called me home. ........................Shiraine

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
