The Father Awaits Poem by Serena Silenced

Last night I dreamt I went back into your arms again.
You beckoned me like a long lost friend.
We drifted away with nary a sound.
Family that had once been gone were now all around.
A brilliant light appeared before my eyes.
Beautiful winged creatures were everywhere filling up the skies.
A blanket of warmth enveloped me.
I knew I was on my way to heaven my heart felt free.
In a moment I was there before pearly gates.
A messenger was there he said, “The Father awaits.”
Those pearly gates began to open for me.
Then I heard our daughter’s voice, saying, “Don’t leave me.”
In that split second I was transported back to the hospital bed.
Our daughter was praying over me with a bowed head.
I know I will see you again at the pearly gates.
For now I am bound to spread the message –
The Father awaits.
