The heart of many flowers
The aroma being genuine
Mama Edna who was so kind
She lit up the room where ever she entered
The smile that said, “Sit A While”
Now that was Mama Edna’s style
She was the guiding light being the family connection
The family were the gatherings and Mama Edna was the harmony
Whenever she laughed and spoke, it was wisdom speaking like a symphony
But through the laughter there were tears
It was pain being Mama Edna’s fears
Her heart was on sorrow
The thought, what would happen to her tomorrow?
The Lord heard Mama Edna’s call
At first it was a moment being a stall
But then Jesus answered and said, “Mama Edna, your room in Heavy is ready
Mama Edna didn’t hesitate because it was her chariot a waits
You struggled long enough
But then, Mama Edna had some encouraging words, “Family and Friends, it’s time for me to go home, I fought a good fight, but now I am guided by Jesus guiding light. I want you all too the remember me from when, and use my legacy throughout every now and then. I will you all to stay close together and comfort each other. My destiny has become a Heavenly eternity. My last words, “Love one another”
Take close
Heaven I have arrived
The Joy, the Praise being the strive
This is not Goodbye, but until we meet again.
