The One That They Love

As much as it seems to be,
the death of a loved one is
not about us, it is a special day
for the one that has passed away,
a time for them to be carried away,
into the arms of their Creator,
to live for eternity in the
grace and the serenity of
a loving Heavenly Father.

As always, loved ones will grieve,
no matter how much they believe,
when faced with the loss of
the one that they love.

Yes, of course we grieve. It is the greatest loss. One that cannot be replaced.
Well written piece James. hugs, Chris

and sometimes the grieving never ends

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~
