I sit wondering why with us you could not stay I know with us you would be if you had your way I have to believe you are so much better off That you are in heaven on clouds so soft Sometimes with you I so long to be When I get to heaven your face I will see For now you are happy with loved ones that passed on before All of you have wings and like a bird you can soar Real friends celebrate in who we are and have faith in all that we can become |

This is a very nice piece of poetry..... Bridgette "Somewhere, somehow, it should be possible to touch someone and never let go again. To hold someone, not for a moment but forever." Unknown |

a vote and a bump.. Carol, find peace in that you will be together one day, flying together. God bless you.. I really enjoyed it. He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. Proverbs 28:26 |

A nice sad poem. I like the content but I think the reversal of wording in order to get the rhyming to work makes this poem a little awkward. However the poem still strikes with me, a man with a brother, though he hasn't died. 2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2 |
