Tis the night before Christmas; and all through the house, are memories of Paul and Christmases past. These memories are all I have now for he is in Heaven with Jesus, content and happy, Wow! Some day soon I will travel that dark road that Paul travelled on May 7th and take Jesus' hand and wend my way to him in Heaven. Oh what a glorious day  that will be to see my Savior and my hubby to spend eternity. So heart of mine try not to be sad for Jesus and Paul are watching over you and wants you to be glad. Santa, No! Jesus, Yes!  |

This is a lovely poem Mom. I remember that first Christmas without Paul, how empty the house felt. But we can rejoice in that one day we will see him again. Thanks for sharing this with everyone here. It's a keeper  |

Thanks for the encouragement. But one poem in 70 years is not a very good record. And of course being my daughter may make you a bit biased.  Isaiah 40:31 They that wait on the Lord! |

Thanks everyone for such kind words. Poetry does not come to me as easy as it does others. But who knows maybe I will have another revelation before I go home to be with Jesus.  Isaiah 40:31 They that wait on the Lord! |

Hi, This is an absolutely beautiful collection of heart felt feelings. I'm sorry for your loss. My oldest son was killed in a car accident at 18. Although I am sad, I know he is happy, joyous and free. And when I'm called home I will be free. Thanks In the spirit, Whippoorwill |
