What a Day It Will Be

I can only imagine the preparations being made for your arrival. The feast being laid out and the glasses being polished to a sparkle. The music is playing and everyone is humming with anticipation. Family and friends are fussing about, giddy with expectation.  Your host is overseeing everything with a gleam in His eye, knowing the hour draws nigh. Your love stands proudly, ready to welcome you through the door. As the angels are singing and strumming their chords, worshipping our Lord.  Soon the seam in between this world and that will be torn, just as in the day you were born. Young to old and old to new. You have completed your journey through. And though your glory we cannot see, our faith confirms it to be.   Trading your cross for a crown; Dirty rags hit the ground. Flowing robes of righteousness now adorn you as victory is found. Overwhelming joy and love abound.  We will make our own preparations, a farewell to make you proud. We will honor you, dear matriarc...

Glorious Sunset in the East

As I watch the sun rise brilliantly in the eastern sky I can't help but wonder if today is the day my heart will cry  My gaze belongs to the east  Where she lies  Fighting to breathe Yet pleading for release  Will her sunset be as glorious as this sunrise? As bright and blinding before my eyes? As she gives up the last of her earthly ties  And on the wings of the angels she flies  Golden light that breaks free across the horizon  God's Son light reminding me she is one of the chosen  As she passes from life to life there is no more precious a moment  At this sunrise time has stood frozen  Spirit and body now at ease  As they partake of the celebration feast  My Meme and Jesus Oh, how my heart's breaking...over that glorious sunset in the east
