Safely Home
I am home in heaven, dear ones,
Oh, so happy and so bright
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in heaven at last.
There is work still waiting for you
So you must not idly stand
Do it now, while life remaineth -
You shall rest in God's own land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you home.
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come

SELF
Where did you go?
I didn't see
When you went
Away from me.
In the Springtime
You were here
Laughing, happy
Always near.
In the summer
You were still
Waiting there
To know my will.
Now it's Autumn
And I find
You're lost somewhere
In space and time.
Someone's mother
Someone's wife,
Someone's daughter,
So much strife.
No time left
Til the "by and by"
Now it's here-
So, who am I?
Mom and Dad, you will be sorely miss by all your friends and family, especially me.
Your loving son, Rick
