Knocking on Heaven's Door

K eep knocking on heaven's door my son

N ow that you have crossed over to the other side

O pen your beautiful blues eyes

C an you see the beauty there at the pearly gates as you stand

K nocking on heaven's door

I  know the angel's will lead you there

N o more tears in heaven shall you cry

G ave all you had to give here on earth, you even gave your life

 

O h what a beautiful person you were to give up your life for another

N ow in heaven you shall be blessed for all of eternity

 

H e laid down his life for his brother

E veryone now sees him as a hero in their eyes

A  wonderful young man he was

V ery much loved by his family and friends

E ach day he is missed more than words can say

N ow that he's gone to knock on heaven's door

S eemed so suddenly, he left so suddenly

 

D own on my knees I pray

O h lord take care of him

O h lord take care of him

I'm so sorry about your son.

This poem really shares the love you had for him, your admiration of the person he became. Much empathy.

I think this young person has died for their country. At least I think this. You have written a heartfelt poem and all the love is seen in your lovely imagery. Bless you and hope that your pain eases soon my friend. HUGS xxxxxAnne
