Graveside

I know you walked up the stairway to heaven that day. The clouds parted angels greeted and showed you the way. With the rain pouring down like teardrops to the ground. We didn't doubt for a second God wasnt around. He called your name and you heard him clear "come home my child do not fear." Take my hand and walk with me,your heavenly home is now complete. I am ready to fulfill all i have promised to you, and that is just what i intend to do. So you reached out your hand gave it to God and said i am not ready this is very hard. I have things i have yet to do or see, i want get to be the father i really want to be. Just give me a couple more years let me laugh a little and shed more tears. But the final decision was made, we cry sometimes standing at your grave. We all know you went to heaven that day. Eyes filled with tears and our heads bowed to pray.
