Notes About The Poem

This poem is for Broken Wings, to bring her a smile from above!

Suzanne In the Clouds

Suzanne in the Clouds


I am here, way up here
At peace and flying free
Dancing with angels
Singing with the accompaniment of violins and harps
Choirs here abound, such a wondrous sound

We have swings, numerous playgrounds of fun
Here all we little ones, smile and eat sugar plums
We see the heavens, we have become the universe
So yes I miss you, but smile it’s not the end

Look up in those dark gray skies
It’s me your flesh and blood that does cry
Not for the days of long ago
It’s me who weeps and sheds tears for you so sad 

So I send you hugs and kisses
I send you heavens wishes
Live for me, and live for you
You have too, you see, live for two!

There will be a day we are children together
It will not matter the time or the weather
So I beg of you way down there
Live this life as if I were there

I am just a little one
With the gift of the after
I am no wiser just filled with joyous laughter
Knowing one day

We will all be family once again

Kisses from heaven

Sad to hear about her loss. But as I'm reading the comments below it looks as though she appreciates what you did. It's sad (but only for us) for those that pass soon, it's a shorter trip to paradise.

Such a joyous demeanor in this poem. "Live for me, and live for you You have to, you see, live for two" .... Did Dr. Seuss co-write this poem with you up in the clouds?? LOL. Seriously though ... good poem. It's not often we read about the deceased from the opposite perspective.

Thanks Tim, I wrote this for Broken Wings, Suzanne was her sister, taken from earth way to young. It always breaks my heart when people suffer such tragic losses!
