The Doors to Heaven Swung Wide![]() ![]() ![]() I saw a bright flash from above me As the doors to heaven swung wide. She paused and looked back at the doorstep Then smiled and stepped inside. ![]() "Wait! Come back! You're too young," I cried, "There's so much in life left to live!" But the smile on her face made it clear to me That heaven had more to give. ![]() We ponder the loss and fight with our faith How could one so good now be gone? Is this really all that we're here for? How can I find the strength to go on? ![]() Then reflection reveals the full life that she lead The wonderful things she had done. Maybe God's plan for her was fulfilled And now it was time to go home. ![]() Some people live a full life in short spans, While some long lives are never complete. But life doesn't end if we let Jesus in And he makes forever so sweet. ![]() So I think of her now in angel's attire Singing anthems in heaven above. Forever untroubled or worried with cares As she basks in the warmth of God's love. ![]() Life on earth is complete for each of us When in heaven God lets us reside And I hope that one day we'll all share with her The light and the love at God's side. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Rick Koen 8/94 Email: RickKoen ![]() ![]() ![]()
