See You There


            Many have gone-

                    Much better place,

                         Hope they found.

                             Gone from Earth-

                              To Heaven's gate,

                           God called them.

                       It was yesterday
 
                     We shared youth-

                       Our world ahead.

                           With great speed

                               Years passed by-

                              Likewise, we aged.

                          Beyond the ridge
 
                     Each friend waits-

             To share embrace.

Your poem is beautiful, Sandra, and we share the same philosophy on the transition from this life to the next. Aging is natural and there is nothing to fear in the afterlife. Best wishes in the contest. I'm sending you a Soup mail with a tracking number.
