Heaven, Invitation Only
Heaven - Invitation Only
You climbed this stairway once before
That day you knocked on heaven's door
Heaven - Invitation Only
You climbed this stairway once before
That day you knocked on heaven's door
The girl was once a nursery nurse, quite shy, yet full of life,
Well, destiny had plans for her, to become a prince's wife.
And so the shy Diana became a blushing bride
A captivating beauty with a prince right by her side
We recall the things our children used to say
For example from our daughter "I just want my hodalays"
We smile at the many times they use a phrase
And lots of other quirky things, on happy days
Did you ever not go to a place you don't know
And were sure you should visit there more
Did you ever once feel that a place is not real
And yet know that you've been there before
in Short Poems
LEST WE FORGET
On barren land on western field
Where only sadness war can yield
Some might say, "my dearest child",
"You did not know her long"
So is it time that measures love?
And wouldn't that be wrong?
I am here as a mother, my husband's here too
And most of you here, I'm related to you
I came here today at the front of your thoughts
As you all gather here for a ritual of sorts
Our Wonderful Dad
I recall at the age of approximately four
That I skipped by your side to the grocery store
You read the last poem, but have since passed away
So the tense has to change, but the sentiments stay
You were such a good father to all of us three
The very best father a person could be
in Dying Poems
We asked all the angels to take you from harm,
So now you sleep soundly, all peaceful and calm
But oh how we miss you, our loss is their gain
There's sunshine in heaven but on earth only rain
