Beatrice Hughes Wilson
Her Home In Heaven
When God reached down
And collected her soul
She reached up knowing
She had to go
Slipping away peacefully
Her body remained
One final look back
She
smiled
Reaching home again
A place she’d forgot
Past memories came
flooding
With splendor and awe
God gave back sights
We cannot
imagine
She finally found
Her home in heaven
We remember her daily
She does the same
We love her always
It will never change
When it’s
my time to go
There is one thing I know
That she will be smiling
All the way home
