          A Message for Marge

My dear Marge I will certainly miss you
For no more will we swap our emails,
A bright light has somehow diminished
But your memory will always prevail,
                --------
As she climbs up those great golden stairs
From Earth where she was always adored,
She will take up her place of prominence
Just on the right hand side of the lord.

And then when God smiled at dear Marge
I’m sure he said, ‘welcome to Paradise,
I’ve been waiting for a special Angel like you
And I know that you will more than suffice.’

‘You’ve been a caring person, loving & kind
Loved and respected wherever you went,
What beautiful memories you’ve left behind,
For all that is good is what you represent.
              -----------
I am sure if Marge has a rose garden
Up there in that garden of dreams,
It will be tended with love & compassion
And will be judged by God as supreme.

So Marge you’ll not be forgotten
Even though you are now deceased
For you are one of God’s treasured Angels
From us all here on earth, Rest in Peace.

                  Lindsay

Lindsay, every blessed word and poetic line, bespoke of our Marge's beautiful spirit. Heaven just got a little brighter with her return Home.

A beautiful poem, by a beautiful poet, for a beautiful poetess.

God bless her ~ and you,

Love,

Lindsay, I can just see our Marge up there in Heaven in her rose garden, picking a bunch of Crimson Glories, and holding them up to her face, and their exquisite scent lighting up the smile of her lips and eyes.
Thank you for this image and for the lovely poem.
