On Christmas Day, my Aunt passed away. I wrote this to help deal with those emotions. |
I Am Home Christmas is a time for family and good cheer Time to hold on to those that we Love so dear A time for colorful lights that make the night so merry And Christmas trees with more presents than you can carry Children and grandchildren laughing and singing Don’t ever forget the joy they are bringing This is what I want you to remember The Love that we shared each and every December I know it will be hard for you each year To think about Christmas without a tear But please do not shed any tears for me As the next Christmas comes and you decorate the tree Think of all the Love and joy that we shared From when we were young until we were gray haired These are the good times I want you to remember The good times we shared come every December I want every Christmas to be oh so dear And I want you to know I’ll always be near Always remember what it meant to me To have you all close, and to decorate the tree As I watch you from Heaven I just want to see You singing and laughing as you remember me I have not gone, I’ll always be near I am happy and joyful and oh so safe up here I am with you all each and every day Just now I am with you if a different way I watch over you and share in your life I’ll keep you safe and away from strife I’ll always be here if you need to talk Just speak to me as you work or as you walk My answer to you will always be clear Just take a moment and you will hear It is so very beautiful here All life’s questions answered so clear The Light that is God is so peaceful and bright Sometimes I wonder how there is a night So many a joyous reunion have taken place And each one ends with a great embrace The Love that we share, it just never dies And you find Love from some that come as a surprise For in Heaven you find that we are all one We are the same, you and I, not a unknown someone We are the children of God, and here you will see Just what true Love was meant to be I see the pain that you all feel, your empty hearts and the loss so real Those tears that you shed, I wish I could steal But it’s natural that you shed tears for a time As you think of my passing from that lifetime But you all need to know I am so happy here So many Loved ones around and God is so near And I am still with you each day and each night I’m holding you now, holding you so tight You all need to know I Love you so much And though I am happy, I still miss your touch You can’t see me, but trust me I’m there I’m that glint on the snow, that wind in your hair I am home now, I am at God’s side It hurts me to see how much you have cried Carry on with the knowing that I am so near Carry on with our memories, not with a tear We are of God, his son’s and his daughter’s In Heaven we all will be, beside still waters Until that time, worry not for me For I am at home, where I am meant to be |
