Everything

Those not with us anymore

Look down from heights above

They see and know what’s in store

They shower us with love

We may not see them everywhere

For they are on a different plane

But we can feel their tenderness

In places where they’ve lain

If they could send us messages

And I’m sure enough they do

They’d send their love and the best

For all our endeavors, too

They are not on some floating cloud

They’re close at hand, just not loud

And so it seems we can share 

The highlights of our day

Not to make the time go faster

But to know we’re on the way

To touching with their heartfelt joy

For that is what they bring

The light, the love, their everything
