Laughter through tears

by Jill Hart

His heaven on earth,
Words never to be spoken,
Upon eternal life.

From across the lake,
Hopeful as the sun reveals itself,
Through decadent red skies,
Elegant clouds form a majestic passageway;
Strong winds call him home.

On the wings of love,
Embraced by blessings,
Earned from a lifetime of compassion,
With an escort of angels,
His spirit gently glides to heaven.
