A wonderful tribute to your mom. Bravo! Amen!

There is always going to be a hole in our heart each time we lose a loved one. However, if we begin to think that the person who is dying or who has died is going "home", this may help us to dry our tears a bit. I lost my father when I was 13 years old, and the hole is always in my heart. But, I knew that he was with God, so it helped a little to know this. I wanted my father to be home with me, but his home is heaven. It was hard to understand at such a young age of 13, but it did comfort me a bit to know and beleive he went "home" to heaven. I love the way you express yourself in your poem! Stop into my den sometime when you have a chance.

If we look towards death as "coming home" it will only comfort the one dying...not the ones left behind. A faithful and loving poem.

I', glad for the expressions in this poem. Sounds like it is like this for all of us. We are all waiting to go home sometime. And to feel and see them again, what a wonderful day that will be. Thanks for this write**********

This is beautiful.
I especially love the way you ended the poem.

When we are in different stages in our journey, we see God's unity from different viewpoints.

Those we love and leave behind see us going home.
Those we loved and who are waiting see us coming home.

To know God and to be in God's love makes us complete.
