This poem was a poem my Grandpa George left behind and I came acrossed it last week. I thought I would post it for anyone else that may need to share it with someone who loses a loved one.
I'm Free (author unknown)
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm Free
I'm following the path God has laid you see.
I took His hand when I heard his call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found the peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fillit with remembered joys -
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
be not burdened with times of sorry.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief -
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee
God wanted me now; He set me free.
