Heaven’s Light

 

The angels came to guide him

On a warm summer day,

For it was his time to go

Though, at first, he begged to stay.

With a look of sorrow

They gently closed his eyes,

As they whispered

A soft regretful sigh.

They dried his tears

With their gowns of white,

With the rustling of their wings

They prepared for flight.

There are no tears

Up in heaven’s light,

And man shall have no fears

During the quiet, black night.

He looked around in wonder

At the countless angels in white,

He tried to number the stars

That filled the endless night.

He rides the celestial winds

Among the star filled night,

Laughing with the angels

Aglow with a heavenly light.

Heaven is now his home

And that’s where he wants to be,

Singing with the angels

Laughing through eternity.
