Never Gone Poem by Kim Schilling

When you called me my heart did stop.
Lost amid clouds my faith did drop.
I heard your voice and fell to the floor,
for God took you many years before.

Was my mournful mind playing a game?
That I would hear you call out my name?
What a gift to have fall upon my ears,
your tender words after all these years.

The Lord works in mysterious ways,
so I bowed my head and gave my praise,
and kindly held within his holy palm,
our love whispered in a gentle calm.

Blessed in dreams your dear console,
Embraced in trust my heart and soul.
My need to have you close fulfilled,
now safe and sound as God had willed
