Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Open Arms

there waiting for me
on the other side
i like to think
of all those
before me
who have passed
and one day
will line up
by the light
with open arms
to welcome me

A Fav for me! I think often about the folks who have went on ahead. Family and friends will have a grand re-union some day.
