I felt the flutter of a soft breeze
As if someone was there with me
I turned around and seen a bright light
Glowing in the evening sky
A warm glow came over my face
And I felt an inner peace
For hovering over me
I seen my angel
Watching over me
I was drawn here tonight
Not sure of my plight
Are you here?
To take me home
Has my work on earth been done?
She reached out her hand to me
The vision became clear to me
I felt a great release
For I had finally set her free
For the angel that was touching my hand
Was my dear sweet grandma?
That had gone to the Promised Land
And the denial I had
That she would be back
I never realized
I never really let go
She released the burden
In my heart, mind and soul
With the love
I feel for her
She came back on earth
To set me free
One day you will pass
Through the pearly gates
And we will be together
For all eternity

This is beautiful, Cheryl...extremely moving piece!  I love this...

sp  

to be with you...
I've tried to hide my passion,
but it's just no use...
piece by piece I lose it
when you walk in the room...
