Heavenly Letter

Today I received a communique; return address was : Heaven Sent.
I nervously tore it open: that’s were my WIFE -- LENORE  went.
“My Dearest and Only Beloved“, {that’s what LENORE called me.}
I seemed to hear HER loving voice, HER angelic Face I see.

I’m here in Heaven; I love you still, I’m Fine and doing well.
Serenity, Tranquillity, with nothing e’er to fear.
Be good; so you can join ME; DO NOT go to HELL.
Dry your eyes, find someone new, weep ME no more tears.

Open the cobwebbed shutters, raise the dusty blind.
Wash down the dirty windows, You’ll see the bright sunshine.
Let ME take away Your Sorrow : take away Your PAIN.
I’ll leave MY LOVE with You; So You can Love AGAIN.
Invite the World to Your house. Find a SPECIAL  FRIEND.
