This is a tribute to my little Love Bug. Nolan was
my only Nephew, a true Angel among us. The privilege of loving
him is the greatest gift the Lord could have given me. Nolan looked
at us all through God's eyes and when Nolan had done the work he
was sent to do he left us just as grand as he came.
I love this
poem and I think it's appropriate for all of us who have lost
a dear loved one. I do not know the author but who ever wrote it—thank
you.
~Aunt Shantel
God's Garden
God
looked around his garden and
He found an empty place.
He then looked
down upon this earth,
and saw your tired face.
He put His arms
around you
and lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes
the best.
He knew that you were suffering;
He knew you were
in pain.
He knew that you would never
get well on earth
again.
He saw the road was getting
rough and the hills
were hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids
and whispered, "Peace
be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you
but you didn't
go alone
For part of us went with you
the day God called
you home.
