<div> <B>that an angel came and called my name,</b></div> <div> <B>and took me by the hand,</b></div> <div> <B>and said my place was ready,</b></div> <div> <B>in heaven far above,</b></div> <div> <B>and that I'd have to leave behind,</b></div> <div> <B>all those I dearly love.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>But as I turned to walk away,</b></div> <div> <B>a tear fell from my eye,</b></div> <div> <B>for all life, I'd always thought,</b></div> <div> <B>I didn't want to die.</b></div> <div> <B>I had so much to live for,</b></div> <div> <B>so much yet to do,</b></div> <div> <B>it seemed almost impossible,</b></div> <div> <B>that I was leaving you.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>I thought of all the yesterdays,</b></div> <div> <B>the good ones and the bad,</b></div> <div> <B>I thought of all the love we shared,</b></div> <div> <B>and all the fun we had.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>If I could relive yesterday,</b></div> <div> <B>just even for awhile,</b></div> <div> <B>I'd say goodbye and kiss you</b></div> <div> <B>and maybe see you smile.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>But then I fully realized,</b></div> <div> <B>that this could never be,</b></div> <div> <B>for emptiness and memories,</b></div> <div> <B>would take the place of me.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>And when I thought of worldly things,</b></div> <div> <B>I might miss come tomorrow,</b></div> <div> <B>I thought of you, and when I did,</b></div> <div> <B>my heart was filled with sorrow.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>But when I walked through heaven's gates,</b></div> <div> <B>I felt so much at home.</b></div> <div> <B>When God looked down and smiled at me,</b></div> <div> <B>from His great golden throne,</b></div> <div> <B>He said, "This is eternity,</b></div> <div> <B>and all I've promised you".</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>Today for life on earth is past,</b></div> <div> <B>but here it starts anew.</b></div> <div> <B>I promise no tomorrow,</b></div> <div> <B>but today will always last,</b></div> <div> <B>and since each day's the same day,</b></div> <div> <B>there's no longing for the past.</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>But you have been so faithful,</b></div> <div> <B>so trusting and so true.</b></div> <div> <B>Though there were times you did some things,</b></div> <div> <B>you knew you shouldn't do.</b></div> <div> <B>But you have been forgiven</b></div> <div> <B>and now at last you're free.</b></div> <div> <B>So won't you take my hand</b></div> <div> <B>and share my life with me?</b></div> <bR> <div> <B>So when tomorrow starts without me,</b></div> <div> <B>don't think we're far apart,</b></div> <div> <B>for everytime you think of me,</b></div> <div> <B>I'm right here, in your heart.</b></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div>      <A HREF="id32.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="MY POEMS"><U><IMG SRC="16091510.jpg" border=0 width="145"
