WELCOME HOME


The sky was hazy blue
The sun just barely shining through

Morning breezes silent
Song birds all were quiet

It was as if the world had stopped
And I had lost all thought

Like walking through a dream
Caught in a space inbetween

Not knowing if awake or in slumber
I continued on in such wonder

Familiar voices heard, but no one I could see
Then it finally occured to me

That I had died and was moving on
To another existance somewhere beyond

Death had come without  pain or fear
I heard my name called by a voice so sweet and clear

A loved one lost so long ago, now appeared to me
Don't you know, you are finally free

You have only to walk through the gate right here
And step into eternity, welcome home my dear
