The news arrived today

That You would not return

Tears fall loudly from some

Softly from others

I see you watching us

Wishing to take the pain away

Knowing that you are missed

There will come a time

When we will realize

You are still with those of us you touched

Your smile and laughter

Your advice and praise

I take comfort from the sorrow

Knowing you are in heaven

Watching over those you loved here

Knowing you are with one

Who you lost years ago

You told me that

My tears of sorrow will dry

For they are selfish

You are in a much better place than us

And I can hear your laughter

And see your smile

You will be missed

By all
