I Will See Your Face
by Joyce L. Rapier → (All Poetry by Joyce L. Rapier)

Save

I will see your face as the sun rises high In golden grandeur in rays far and wide. I'll know you're there as it touches the sky Caressing your hand with a gentle sigh. I will see your face in a butterfly As it floats through the air on a gentle breeze. I will watch you soar high as you take flight And watch in wonder till you're out of sight. I will see your face in soft white clouds Like a picture of you being painted in white, And listen as you whisper a soft repose Dancing around on your tippy toes. I will see your face in a wayward leaf Kissing the ground beneath my feet Watch you swirl your silent voice I will see your face as you rejoice. I will see your face as the birds sing bright Songs full of hymns; at first light Communing with God as they only can Full of grace for all mankind. I will see your face on a moonlit night In a twinkling star your face will shine bright. As you reach to touch the hand of God I know in my heart you have His eternal light. Be still your soul; calm your fears You're all around us, forever near For life and in death your spirit shows grace I forever will see your wonderful face.
In loving memory to my grandson, Beau. Forever twenty. 10-18-81---8-31-02 With love, your Grannie
