Author  ~  Unknown   To my dearest family, some things I’d like to say But first of all to let you know that I arrived ok I’m writing this from rainbow bridge, here I dwell with god above Here there is no more tears of sadness; just eternal love Please do not be unhappy just because I’m out of sight Remember I am with you every morning, noon and night The day I had to leave you when my time on earth was through God picked me up and hugged me and he said “I welcome you” It’s good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone As for your dearest family, they will be here later on I need you very badly, you are part of my big plan There’s so much more we have to do to help our mortal man God gave me a list of things that he wanted me to do And foremost on my list was to watch and care for you And when you lie in bed at night the day’s chores put to flight God and I are close to you in the middle of the night When you think of life and earth and all the loving years Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears But do not be afraid to cry it does relieve the pain Remember there would be no flowers without a little rain I wish that I could tell you all that god has planned If I were to tell you, you wouldn’t understand But one thing I know for certain even though my life is though Now more than ever I feel so close to you There are many rocky roads ahead for you and many hills to climb But together we can do it taking one day at a time It was always my philosophy and I wish it for you too That what you give to this world, this world will give to you If you can help somebody who is in sorrow and pain Than you can say to god at night “my day was not in vain” And now I am content that my life was worth while Knowing as I passed along the way that I made someone smile So if you meet somebody who is feeling sad and low Lend a hand to pick him up as on your way you go When you are walking down the street and you have me on your mind I’m walking in your footsteps only half a step behind And when it’s time for you to go from your body to be free Remember you’re not going, you’re coming here to me
