PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I stand before you, dear Lord,
to ask not for favors of selfishness,
but of You helping my beloved
ancestor entering your magical embrace
in his final journey through life
not to be lived with me or anyone else
anymore as he walks through your swinging
golden gates before your angel guides him
towards You after years of praying
and abiding to Your command as our Savior
from the evils of the world and I beg you
take mercy  upon this mortal man
because he is perfect in every way feasible
when You crafted him with Your everything
as You shared his existence with us
instead of keeping him as Your treasure
and take his shaking hand in Yours
before wiping away his remorseful tears of
no longer being able to be among the living
bodies still learning lessons on our fair Earth
because he has done everything You
created him for in his living state
whisked into heaven.
