Angels Embraces

                                                                        ANGELS EMBRACES

His life is nearly over

He's lived it to the full

Pretty soon he'll meet his maker

He can feel it's heavenly pull

His eyes will remain open

But no longer will they see

His body he'll no longer need

All at peace he'll be

Knowing soon he'll be reunited

At his sweethearts side again

Feeling only purest love

Devoid of all his pain

He wonders if she'll be waiting

Eager for him to arrive

So they can share an angels embrace

Hoping their love it did survive

A light appears in a corner

And a voice it speaks to him

"It's time for you to join us"

He leaves without a whim

Gliding down a tunnel

To a distant light so bright

An angel to the left of him

Another to his right

Accompanied by an angel choir

He makes an entrance oh so grand

Now all in front of him

His long lost loved ones now do stand

First his father comes to greet him

His handshake still so strong

Next comes his mother

With a hug that lasts so long

Then he see's her standing there

His wife of umpteen years

Her body no longer broken

She can't hold back her tears

Now she's a girl of only 18 years

He looks down and he's young too

Returned to when they first met

To start their love a new
