The Welcome Home
Suddenly the pain is gone
And darkness subsides.
Surrounded by love
And supported by angels
The journey begins.
A feeling of peace replaces any fear.
The moon and stars
Are there to light the way,
A soft glow for the soul to follow.
Cherubs peak over the edge of their nests
On the silver-white clouds.
They are delighted to meet the soul
As it comes to the place
Where God begins.
"Welcome, welcome"
They call as they wave their chubby little hands,
"All is made ready. We have been waiting for you."
All of Heaven is rejoicing.
Another has come home.
The gate opens wide,
Inside are those who have gone before.
Dogs are barking,
Children are laughing,
Music is playing,
Such celebration!
Welcome home my child,
So good to have you home.
