I see grandpa as I look up to the sky
I can envision him as he greets Jesus eye to eye as love and joy fills the air
The Angel's sing welcome songs and the anthems reach the heavenly throngs
as Jesus and Grandpa walk along the streets of gold as they passed through the Golden gate
They stood for a moment and stared into the Crystal lake, I heard Grandpa exclaim , I can
hardly wait to tell my children about this beautiful place
They traveled along a little further and  joy and peace filled the air
He turned and saw grandma standing there, smiling from ear to ear as she said "I've been waiting to see you, here there are no tears, no sorrows, nor fears here there is only happiness, love, joy and peace eternally
I heard that up in heaven Jesus has prepared, the things that make his children happy
I am sure for grandpa  there will be many 500 card games and they will be the best ever
i wrote and read this poem for my grandpa's funeral.
I hope you like it my friends!

Each tragic death breaks my heart, I know how tough life is.
But it gets tougher on those that survive the tragic of others deaths.
For it is us that has to live on without you in our hurting world.
So remember the next time you want to finish it all here.
That there will be people that you destroy their lives by your death.
Whom had loved you more then you shall ever know anytime.

Standing firm through this spiritual hurricane that attacks us.
Standing firm with the strength of the Mighty Lord our God.
Standing firm , for he is our Strong tower, our fortress also.
Standing firm in this darkness that try to overtake each of us.
But we have a Savior that none can overtake , he is our everything.
When we put our trust in him, he shall never let any of us down.
For he is our protection throughout every single storm we go through.
So I shall stand firm, and never give in  to the fears that destroys.

Today I grieve for a love gone,
No reason why, No goodbyes....
Now here I stand on the precipice,
Alone,
Confused,
Tears in my eyes,
Why?


I find I lay my hand on
My own heartside.
You did that once, I remember;
I slept so silently
You had to
Check.
Tears in my eyes.
I know why.

I would give all I own
To feel your love once more,
To hold in my hands, your gift,
The heart I have always adored
On bended knees,
Longing,
Begging!
Tears in my eyes,
Why?


I wish I could tell you why,
But The Question is my lover;
The Answer, my ex.
There's an absence the size and
Shape of a heart by your side.
I hear hands gone knocking on
Doors that never closed; the
Sound of love against
Love.

*You have left me, with no hope,
No heart to hold, no love to share,
You had my heart, so full and pure
Giving yours away to an ex, not there!
You pushed me over the edge
I lay broken at the bottom,
Tears in my eyes...
No More!

There is a Light in some that lights up the world.
Their struggles and strengths never defeated them.
Christ lite them up revealing his Beautiful Glory.
Like all people our Lights shine brighter in desperate times.
Because in the hard times that we go through here.
It is during these times mostly reveal Christ within us.
It is through our hardships that we are carried by him.
These are the times that his love for us is mostly evident.

God help those whom cry out in pain every night and every day.
Help those whom drink to forget the tragics in their  tragic lives.
I know how when you are hurting, you desperately crave relief.
From the memories of the pain, but sometimes the relief never comes.
For this reason I cry out not only for your people to be healed .
But for every one that struggles with their pains no matter who they are.
For through the healing that they may see God for who he really is.
A awesome Faithful Savior that saves those that are hurting and lost.,
