God saw you were getting tired ~

and cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
and whispered ~ come with Me.
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
and slowly fade away.
Although we loved you dearly
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Working hands were put to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

After Glow

I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when life is done.

I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.

I’d like the tears of those who
grieve, to dry before the sun,
Of happy memories that I leave
when life is done.
