Heavenly Welcomes

God has promised we will see them all again,
Those precious loved ones who've gone on before.
They are safely in His hands, freed from pain
And some day we will see them all once more.
I can hardly wait to enter Heaven's door.
I'll see Mamma and my daddy and my brothers,
My husband and my son and many others.
Oh, what a time of wonder that will be.
The waiting arms of two grandmothers
Are stretching out in welcome there for me

yes, there's surely nothing to fear! Had a little snow - but it melted as soon as it hit the ground. Loved it anyway. Have a great week, dear Joyce xx

I like it! This is a great poem and I felt the emotions swimming throughout it. The author uses good imagery and maintains a poetic flow through the whole piece. I enjoyed reading this poem, it rings true and real. Emile.
