Moving Home For The Last Time Poem by Royston Allen

My life was now over so I moved home today.
I have passed on my earthly wealth and gone away.
No need for my goods and chattels to follow me
for they're not required where I am going to be.

This old house all dilapidated and decayed
had outlived the purpose for which it had been made.
So I left it behind me like an empty shell
for it was made of flesh and served its' purpose well.

But I’m eternal and born by the breath of God.
Saved when I put my trust in Christ Jesus my Lord.
So my soul soared heavenward up to its new home
no more confined to earth but the heavens to roam
