He planted sunflowers
by the roadway
to make bright my rocky trail to heaven.
Brothers and sisters in Christ
with bright, happy smiles
line the twisty path
to my " good night."
I will go to my grave in peace
for I am in harmony
with God and man.
Christ will be there.

Revisiting, Shirley. If only some are as grateful as you are for the blessings showered on us every moment till we make that final journey - siva
Very touching, Shirley, and totally in praise of Him. If only, we stopped to pause and grateful for all that is given to us and took precious care of them! Every step, every breath will matter as we leave our footprints before we bid " goodbye" and "goodnight". Till then, we still contribute our might in whichever way possible. Thanks again for sharing the lovely thoughts - siva
I never thought of cheery people as sunflowers, but I can see it now.

Beautiful...

He will be there for you with open arms Shirley. &)
