Diane's Poems

Glory Land Bound

Stairway to Heaven

     

Stairway to Heaven

My best friend  passed  away today

She was called to Gloryland.

I have had my cross on all day today

holding it tight, and then I silently would pray.

 

Then, to my surprise ,

I saw this lovely rainbow

it was the most beautiful rainbow;

I knew it was her stairway to the sky.

 

It was all the way from the water

so beautiful and clear the color.

 

I wore my cross today

and held it close to my heart,

I knew in my heart we were never far apart.

 

I love you Rita, my precious friend,

As our loving God, left you a rainbow

so, I can watch you enter in.

 

I may seem strange in some peoples eyes

God, knows my heart, and he understands.

 

This friend of mine is special and I will see her again.

 

As, she is now singing with the Angels

a nice voice she had.

We just talked last Night about 3:00AM

she was singing ONE DAY AT A TIME,

and I was humming along,

the voice I do not have!

 

I know that song is special to us both

and so grateful I talked until about around 3:00

I just felt a need to talk for a long time,

she had more energy, and the time just went away

so fast, I felt so good we were able to have that talk that day.

 

I will see you in the garden my friend,

as one more Angel will

meet me at the other end.
