Returning Home

Last night I looked in the skies I saw some angels flying high I asked them to fly down To please take me for a ride They swooped down and scooped me up We took off for the sky We went high above the heavens The place people go when they die They carried me up and set me down I stood there on a cloud I felt I was amoung royalty So I turned and bowed They asked, what are you doing? I said, showing you respect For I am just a visitor Here amoung your sect They looked at me all puzzled They asked, what do you mean? You gave me a ride up her I thought I was having a dream They looked at me with saddened eys They said, we're sorry to say That you are now home You see, you died yesterday We flew down to get you To bring your soul with us God told us you were heaven bound It's us you must now trust From now on this will be your home You now have your own pair of wings You made it up to heaven Where we always rejoice and sing Next you'll be the one To fly back to earth To bring someone else back home To experience their rebirth When it's time you'll know For God will give you the word Then you will take to flight Like that of a majestic bird 2-14-07/RJH
