Home Again

When death comes, my stay here will be done,

you see this earth is not really my home,

I have just been visiting for a short time,

but now it's time to move on,

to my real home, which in in Heaven,

where a Mansion is waiting for me,

all clean and ready to move in,

rent free, then I can say,

I'm home again,

home to stay forever more.

So very true. It is so nice to be reminded that our treasure is not on this earth but to be rewarded by our Heavenly Father in paradise. Great read, my friend:) R.M.
