I'm Closer Now To Heaven
I'm closer now to Heaven
Than I've ever been before.
And sometimes I hear death's angel
Knocking at my door.
To once again see
Family members who have crossed,
My son, my brother, my parents,
And aunts and uncles that I've lost.
This would be a joy,
And all of Heaven would hear me shout.
There would be hugs and kisses,
Dancing and laughter all about.
But still I want to live
Awhile longer on this earth.
So my fingers grip life's bars,
And my toes still touch earth's dirt.

Ah I very much enjoyed this.

words can sting like all things

Re: I'm Closer Now To Heaven
And I like peanutbutter, too. Have you tried the new kind with cinnamon and raisons. By Planters, I believe? Yummy! By the way, where have you been? You joined in 2004 and do not have many posts. Please don't leave us again!

Re: I'm Closer Now To Heaven
I will always come back to the pages.
Can't promise I can stay long, however.

Re: I'm Closer Now To Heaven
There may not be many posts anymore these days, but there was at one point quite a bit of me scattered here. Jade (Pops, if ya readin this can you change my name back? I was recognized just a lil bit more then lol) . There has been some great many friendships formed here... bonds too beasty to break!
This is a wonderful place to go when I need to find myself. When I need to remember who I am.
