I never imagined it would be this hard to find the right words to say when planning a funeral. Maybe because I never planned on my children passing before me. But you see, we were never just the “normal, pick one” type of family. We loved to take a concept and made it our own. To be original. Therefore, I didn’t want to just “pick out” some generic poem, or quote from a funeral home book, for my daughter’s funeral resolution folder. So please enjoy what I managed to put together behind gasps of air and tear soaked eyes…..Just One Peek…
Just one little peek into heaven,
Is all I’m asking for today.
I just want to know how she’s doing,
And heaven seems so far away.
Is she dancing on the clouds with angels?
Is she laughing and singing today?
Is that her blowing me kisses from heaven?
Upon my face, I wish they would stay.
She’s with her father Harley now,
Of whom she longed to see
His arms wrapped tight around her
Oh how I wish she were still with me
If you just let me look for a moment,
To catch a glimpse of her sweet smiling face,
I promise I won’t try to take her,
I know, she’s in a better place.
Just one little peek into heaven,
Is all I’m asking for today.
I just want to know how she’s doing,
And heaven seems so far away…
