There are no shadows up in Heaven

As we all live in God’s pure light

There is no sadness, pain, or Anger

There are no tears within our sight

Here life is filled with love and laughter

Our souls are free to run and fly

So as you think of me please smile

And Please don’t keep asking God why

Life there on Earth is just a chapter

Of this eternal live we live

Heaven is not the end of our life

As we have so much more to give

You look at me as if I’m gone

As if I am not there with you

But you see, I am still right here

And I was only passing through

Part of my path in life with you

Was to bless you with strength and love

You see it was my time to go

and I now watch you from above

I watch you as you spread your wings

Sometimes you stumble and you fall

But know I’m standing next to you

I’ll be here with you through it all

Days may seem harder since I passed

And your nights may feel lonely too

Know as you say your prayers to me

In Heaven I always hear you

May you see signs I send from Heaven

Letting you know I’m at your side

And please know this within your heart

Your life you live fills me with pride

Someday this all will just make sense

When you join me with God above

For now just live life to it’s fullest

As I surround you with my love
