heaven's gift

Written for the dear lady next door who lifted my sisters and I over the fence and took care of us.

The melodic singing of angels resonates in my ear,
Here every joy I felt on earth is infinitely intensified and eternally present,
The grass is greener, the sky is clearer and the flowers stand with pride as I gaze at their immeasurable beauty,
The air is filled with a hopefulness I cannot explain and the grace which is so sparse on earth is ever flowing.

Here in this place nothing concerns me for I am loved like never before,
Here I experience freedom none of humanity can ever bestow,
I have never felt a peace quite like this,
My sprit is light and my body is new,
My face is aglow with awe and wonder,
And my eyes reflect the joy in my heart.

Do not get me wrong,
My life has been wonderful,
The people I’ve loved,
The things I’ve seen
The happiness I’ve felt,
These are memories I hold so dear,
But this, this is like nothing I’ve ever known,
This I cannot describe even to those who know me best,
This is beyond comprehension,
This is a gift given from the kindest of hearts to the humblest of men.
