Visiting Hours

I wish there was Heaven that had visiting hours,
So I could just, show up and bring you news,
They are getting' older and I wished you'd got to see
The things they all get up to, 
I am sure they learn't them from you.

If I just stay a while and we would 
Have made things so happier.
We were soon to become closer,
But so much has changed since you went away,
I know one day we will meet again.

I wish that Heaven had visiting hours,
So I could call and talk one last time,
I know that we hadn't always seen eye to eye.
It was difficult in my situation?
I haven't a clue how things never got raised before.

You always did right by raising all your children
With love and protection.
So I will live my life the best way you taught me,
Always be polite and say:
Thank you especially to those that are good to you.

Liked the idea Heaven having visiting hours! yes we should all do that, like the last line. that's a beautiful thought. thanks Login to Reply
