I entered the poem God Has A Plan which was a tribute for my Cousin whose husband died suddenly about a week before Christmas. She died from Heart complications, 20 days later. Her sister is battling Cancer and has only 4 years left. Her 4 years are about up and she requested for me to write a poem for her and read it at her funeral. I was so honored that she asked me to do that. I want to share this poem with you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Laverne was a blessing wrapped into one
Taking on the world until the day was done
Doing her best through each and every day
She cherished life in hardships and play

Her mother was special,in Laverne's life
Even through times of unbearable strife
Tending her mother's needs many years
Sharing many times of laughter and tears

She loved her entire family so very much
As fingertips reach for one final touch
Her great-grandson was a blessing to her
She passed her heritage in order to enter

With Christian faith she soars like an eagle
Through God she shines bright and regal
Her spirit shines through her loving heart
Her gentle touch and love will never part

Being her very last testament and final goal
God has sent heavenly angels for her soul
A beautiful legacy for each and every one
From break of day to the evening's setting son
