Martha and Mike

 

By Bud Lemire

“Wake up Mom, I've come to take you home”
She looked around for the voice, but she was alone
“I came here to be cared for, as I grow old”
“No Mom, that's what your human body was told”

“Home is what you call Heaven, and you'll be free”
“Take my hand, I'll show you all that you can be”
She hesitated a moment, but she really wanted to know
What happens when someone passes, to the soul

“Michael, I'll need my walker, not sure I can walk”
“Follow me Mom, mind to mind is how we talk”
“Without your body, you can do so many things”
Imagine yourself flying, with the most beautiful wings”

“There are some presences, that wish to welcome you here”
“On Earth is a gathering, where their loss will shed a tear”
“Oh my, Michael, there are so many relatives and friends”
“They're welcoming you home, your journey never ends”

“Michael, you have such a bright light around you”
“Oh Mom, it's so much more amazing, than you ever knew”
“It's so beautiful, I think I'm going to like it here”
“You'll never have to worry, about aging another year”

                      Author Note:

Martha is reunited with her family and friends that had passed away
from Earth into Heaven. She transcended and had a beautiful home
here in Heaven. Her light shined brighter as time as we know here
on Earth moved along. She didn't forget those she left behind. She
would visit them, and watch over them. Even though they couldn't
see her, if they tried real hard, they'd feel her presence in their hearts
and souls. Because this kind of love, never ends.
