Poem-Night Before Heaven

It was the night before heaven

and all through my mind

surrounded by family

and others so kind.

The lights were so bright

not blinding you see

glorious lights shining

just welcoming me.

The rainbow of colors

were out of this world

an orchestra of angels

could so softly be heard

I closed my eyes gently

The lord whispered my name

a hand so warm and comforting

took away all the pain

I looked into his eyes

I said "Is this real"?

but,warmth in my heart

was all i could feel.

I started to cry

where are my family and friends?

don't worry he whispered

I will take care of them all

untill you meet them again.
