Grandpa Slept

11 21 08


By his bedside mom and I went 
While in and out of consciousness with his sweet nature he slept.
We reminisced with him of the days to behold
Grandpa was worth his weight providing much more for the family,
Than silver & gold.
Looking on into his eyes I could see
That his Heavenly Father was communicating messages to him,
From Thee.
He told me and mom that he was ready to let loose from the world 
To see Grandma and his offspring, and to go home and be free.

With that being said and the Heavenly ora in his hospital room
Mom and I knew that his Creator would be coming to take him 
With him soon.
While she and I prayed with him for that very last time
Thanking God The Father for keeping and comforting grandpa,
With his Agape Love sublime

Love this one. It is good to love and be loved by family and friends and to have a relationship with the heavenly Father. Sara
