Good Bye To Miss Emma
by Joan Estelle High
© Feb 2002

Someone I know just died today. 
She sat down to rest,
And her soul just slipped away.
A gentle spirit sailed out across the void.
That separates "Tomorrow Land",
From this the " Land of Yesterday".

An Angel slipped in quietly, 
Upon a golden beam.
He didn't even startle her,
She thought he was a dream.

He gently called her by her name.
He took her by the hand,
To lead her to the Master
And to the promise land.

She quickly threw aside  her veil of flesh
It was like taking off a glove.
She was carried off to "Tomorrow Land"
Within the angels wings of love.

I am so sorry she had to die.
I know her soul has places to go
And other things she has to do.
I wish I could have said good bye,
For I will miss her too.
