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.

Marshall Iftekhar Ahmed January 5, 2022 at 3:00 PM Yes! at least one visit would give us the needed peace, if we can say what we couldn't say and say goodbye until the day we meet again. Liked the idea Heaven having visiting hours! yes we should all do that, like the last line. that's a beautiful thought. thanks
