Just inside heaven's gate Is where you said youd be You'd meet me underneath The beautiful birch tree This arrangement we had made Just before you passed away How my life was turned upside down How my sunny days became grey I cannot tell you exactly Which day I will be there But for now I'm needed here There are many for whom I care The last two years have been difficult As my life has moved along How hard I've tried to be happy How hard I've tried to be strong Not a single day goes past When I don't think of you And when I close my eyes at night You will often come into view Suetang |

I could have writtten this. Two years is a moment sometimes and forever at others. But you have that promise. Joyce |

Severn Thank you for reading this......Sue Michael I'm sure you know how I feel. Thanks....Sue Joyce It is difficult for me as on the 30th May it will be the anniversary of my father's death so I guess that explains all this outpouring of emotion from me....you see it first hand in my writing, I tend to try and hide it from others. Take care......Sue Suetang |

SueTang, your tender heart is heard, and I am sure your thoughts are heard by a very proud Father, for if he sees how you and your writing have grown in the short time I have known you, he is smiling down on you now. Hugs sweetie! ~*~ I write ~ Therefore I am ~*~ |

Marge Thank you for you comfort and concern....Sue Mysteria What a lovely thing to say......I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sometimes I think I let people see too much of myself that many others don't see but I take so much comfort in my writing and it helps me so very much. Take care....Sue Suetang |
