Rest In Peace
They laid me to rest,
I think it is me
I am confused
Is it me that I see?
Am I looking at myself?
How can that be?
If I can look at her
Why can't she see me?
She looks peaceful,
Laying there
Quiet and content
No more worries or cares.
I can hear beautiful music,
And smell the fragrance of flowers
The sun is shining brightly
There is no sign of a shower.
The church is old
With stain-glassed windows around
The pictures in the windows
Religious history abounds.
Gentleness and calm
Warmth and love.
Fill my Soul,
As I float around from above.
I have had an exciting life,
As I have lived for many years
Like us all
There have been heartache and tears.
That's all behind me now,
There is no time for regrets.
Eternity means forever.
You do not have to hedge your bets.
