Notes About The Poem

The Sweet Bye and Bye

I was floating, floating, high up in the sky.
Have I gone to the “sweet bye and bye?”
The light was so blinding it hurt to look.
I wondered, was my name in life’s Book?

Angels would walk, pray, and sing.
It was as if a party was in full swing.
The incredible peace was throughout the place,
No cares, no pain on their happy face.

It was so wonderful that I wanted to stay,
But I woke and realized God gave me a new day.
I don’t care about riches and gold,
I just pray the Lord to have mercy on my soul!
