Heavenly Home


Where did you go
Where have you gone
Please tell me you will be back
You won’t be long

Or are you in your little cottage
Above the clouds in the sky
A place where love and contentment
Are always in full supply

Where colourful flowers forever bloom
Music and laughter are blissfully heard
The sun always shines
Kindness is the unwritten word

Where pure joy surrounds you
There is peace in your heart
Where you wanted to reside
When from this earth you did depart

The place you always called Heaven
Where angels come from
Are you one of them now
My lovely sweet mum

If that is where you are
I will say my goodbye
For I know you are happy
In your heavenly home in the sky

farewellheavenhomeloverhyme

Ohhh, a cryin' poem. AND SO well done that I know she's really physically gone. The emotion is too tender to not be authentic. I still have my Mom, 88, lost Daddy at just 67. We never stop missing them, never and your poem is a lovely write expressing exactly how we feel, if not aloud talk to them at times. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Dear Deb, this is a beautiful poem, I didn't even realise it until I touched my face that I was crying. A powerful poem. A truly deeply heart touching poem. Love, Anne

your words touched me deeply, Deb. I thought about my dearly departed mother as I read this poem. I felt a little sad but glad at the same time, knowing my mom is happy and no longer in pain. Thanks for sharing this poem, hugs, Sara
