      Another Star in Heaven

      

Look at the gathering sky, as the dark sun slowly falls,
And listen of whispering shadows, tis the evening calls,

As twilight pushes up the sun, each morning starts anew,
We count our every days delight, each storm or wind that blew,

Our lives are given to the Earth, yet of which they came,
But our souls are a gift of Heaven, A star with out a name,

We choose our paths and lift the cross, burdens we will share,
And weave in to our tapestry, friend’s sorrows we must bear.

Yet when our time on Earth is done, our pains and sorrows quell,
On Angel wings, our spirits glide, with a heavenly chorus swell,

Tonight a new light shines for us, its brilliance we recognize,
For our dear departed loved one, is the brightest star in the skies.



The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked.

This is a very lovely write in memory of our dear Marge. It warms the heart to realize how much she was actually loved by all here.

Love,

A very kind tribute to a very special lady. Well done.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

I am grateful that Larry bumped up this tender rendering from your heart for our beloved Marge. I had missed it and am touched by the beauty of your ink ~ and heart.

So beautifully penned. So apt and true.

God bless her ~ and you,

Love & Eternal Light,
Linda

Billye, I'm sorry you didn't get to know Marge. She was special... and I miss her so much it's still hard to read the tributes written for her.

I'm glad this was bumped back up... it's beautiful, Tracey... even if I have to read through tears.
