"I'M SEEING GOD TODAY"
by Joanne Boyle
I went to see God today
and I looked him in the eye.
I asked him why he took me,
and made so many cry.
I saw familiar faces.
Dogs that played with birds.
Flowers that never wilted.
No one was ever scared.
Children wore their wings
like a costume from a shop.
The eternal view of life
was never meant to stop.
I still didn't understand
but I felt glad that I was here.
God then opened up the clouds
and I saw that I was near.
It was then he began to speak,
he said "just look down there.
So much pain and destruction,
a sight I cannot bare.
So each day I find new angels,
some are young and some are old,
but once they are here in heaven
their age will always hold.
I know that when I take them,
hearts will break in two.
I keep sending down reminders,
in their memories of you.
My angels go to earth
and help them with this fate
but some I go to carry,
to help them through the gate.
Some people are in pain
and though you cannot see,
heaven is the place,
that they deeply long to be.
Some are just too beautiful,
or were sent to earth too soon.
Some were just too fragile,
to be a part of life's sad tune.
We know who is arriving,
the time, the date and place.
We know we leave so many
with a big and empty space.
We will fill it with sweet memories
and let you go and see.
What matters to us most
is that you are now happy."
By now I had forgotten my question,
but not those I'd left behind.
I knew I would always live
in the memories that you'll find.
