Please Help Us

Oh Heavenly Father

I ask of you

To pull my family together

Extend your hand

To mend our broken hearts

Fill that empty void

With wonderful memories of joy,

You are all we have left to turn to

Please help us pull through,

We know he rests within your haven

For he did no wrong

And you quickly saved him,

We know he's in the safest of hands

But it's difficult for us

To no longer feel his touch,

And we know his soul is safe

Just need some reassurance

From time to time

Please help us accept this loss

With great understanding

And much needed grace.

I like this one... Very nice prayer looking forward to the future...
I must admit that I'm not that religious but I can perceive the sense of loss in this one and the faithful prayer of a person who is still here asking for guidance...

"To mend our broken hearts
Fill that empty void"
For me, this line set the mood firmly...

A family that prays together stays together...
I suppose that saying is true...

an excellent tribute to souls who have passed on to the next great adventure. i still reel from my father's passing in 2006, and mom followed in 2007. it is a sense of loss which is difficult for others to comprehend....well written and thank you.

[Tarry Franck]

There is deffentaly a different mind set for all of us in the family for me really as i read this poem i know where your coming from. Its different knowing where he is and its going to take each of us time to come to terms with this i surely havent yet. We do nneed to lean on the lord and ask him for help as well as we all need to come together as a family and be together this is a very needed write i needed to read to help me comes to terms with and know that God is helping us all I commend you for ths rwrite and i thank you for writing it

A poetic prayer is original and is the first thing I'll praise about this work. I liked the structure much better than some of your prior work, Tarry, and the word selection was greatly improved. This is not the type of work one can say they "enjoyed" but I can respect it greatly and commend you for it.

[Tarry Franck]

Thank you so much.
