Here is poem that I wrote as a reminder of how precious life is….

A blessing from above

There are many things
that we take for granted
like the beautiful scenery
of many flowers and trees planted

in the ground they grow
to be forever in the eyes
of the beholder you know
a beauty so unique

that we are able to see
because of the gift
from god to you and me
he gave us these things

with so much love
that you know is nothing less
than a blessing from above
these wonderful gifts

that god has given
and so much more
than just living
he has the power

to give and to take
whatever he chooses
whether asleep or awake
he can call us home

for it is him who decides
when we shall pass
and only then we will
meet him at last

face to face we
shall be with the lord
in the gardens of heaven
where we will be restored

So everyday that he
gives us we shall consider
it a blessing and we
enjoy every minute

There is no guarantee
of the breath that we take
as it can be the last
no matter how we make

our days in to weeks
we should be thankful
he always speaks
to us from above

he sends many blessings
in ,many different ways
whether they come in the night
or they are given to us as days

of our lives that pass
quickly and swift
like the many things
that god has given as his gift

So it is very imortant
that we understand
that god has control
with the wave of his hand

he can do so much
and do it with love
so whatever he does
is A BLESSING FROM ABOVE.

Such a beautiful spirit cut short, but his death has not been in vein, may his family find the peace and solace that they are seeking and his soul R.I.P
