YOUR HEAVENLY FLIGHT

You fought death, at every turn

While for Heaven, your spirit did yearn

You thought God, was moving slow

Asking us to, let you go

 Your legs were contracted, you could not walk

At the end, you could no longer talk

You were far sicker, than anyone knew

But you had faith God, would carry you through

Loved ones in Heaven, their faces you did see

Holding your hand up, saying to God come get me

But family here, you were not ready to forget

You would then shake your head, and say no not yet

You gave a good fight, but when your time came

God sent the death angel, your life to claim

At the moment of death, your eyes filled with delight

Your spirit was set free, for its Heavenly flight

You are now in Heaven, your treasures you can view

I hope you knew

How much we loved you
