On The Way To The Gates

Some days I feel my age and the sickness with a tiredness that just washes over me like a wave...

Broken down promises that lost the meaning of time, no one even cares no more, somehow seems a crime


Old whiskey dreams of yesterday, when I still believed in love, now it’s burning candles at both ends to meet the man above


Heart don’t work like it used to, bloods gone into pressures farts, all I have to do is look at sugar and my diabetes are off the charts


I don’t know where I’d be today if I were not with you, maybe playing songs outside a bar door, one they won’t let me through


The maker has a master plan that he didn’t share with me, I just do what he asks of me and let things be as they be


When he says it’s time to go, I’ll smile if not in pain, then climb aboard wave good bye and ride that glory train

Get on board, get on board, don't you see her coming down the line, take faith hope and charity with you, and leave all the rest behind, get on board, get on board, she wont stop here too long..
You'll be half way home to heaven, before the devil knows youre gone...

Dear Felix,

Please don't be too anxious to jump on that Glory Train. I relate to your pain yet there is still so much for us to do here. Your thoughts, words and actions DO make a difference.

Love & Light,
Joseph

The Maker has a master plan for you...
why not ask Him what it is?!
You're very special to us here at A.D.,
& don't you forget it. :)
An honest & vulnerable piece, Fee. Thank you.

If you get there before me, will you please wait for me at the terminal to punch my ticket? I would be honored to have you in my welcoming party. Physical life is a terminal situation...funny how Glory Train and Terminal seem to go together...Our sufferings shall all at once cease and we will delight in the comfort and light of eternity. Love takes on many forms and it is always what we perceive it to be and what we make it for ourselves. Nobody can give us love..love is our own vibration bouncing back on us from the one we bestow it upon.
Take care,
Sherry
