Crossing Over

Crossing Over From darkness I awaken, No longer burdened by the weight of pain. I am in awe of this light surrounding me, It bathes me in the warmth of love. Two tiny children take hold of my hands, as the smiles on their faces assure me its ok. Together we cross this last bridge into peace. Suddenly I spot loved ones I have so longed to see. They cradle me in their arms as tears of joy fall like rain. I am amazed at how I can see everyone all at once. Not only those who have crossed before me, I can also see the loved ones I left behind. I can hear their voices and feel their love. Now I fully understand the glory of our Lord, As I rejoice for eternity in his kingdom. So please do not cry for me, for I am with him As I will also be ,with you forever. By Brian K. Walters In Loving Memory of Jeanette Reghi 1916-2007
