My Request To God

I think of you and I can hear your voice in paradise ... grandma talk to god to come back one more time ... until my day comes. I want to be the girl who played in the room and I ran into your arms. Talk to God that I will be obedient, a good girl just to have you again with me. This is not a letter because you never learned to read with his eyes ... You always read with your beautiful heart, my grandmother and foster mother. I know that God will understand me ... I always I will love you my princess with white hair. I'll wait for you sitting in our old chair ...

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
