On My Way To Heaven Poem by david lessard

When I was ill,
You made me whole,
When I swallowed
Life's bitter pill,
You gave me strength
and saved my soul.

When I was mad,
You took away the hate,
and made my heart glad,
as I looked forward,
to my anticipated fate.

You were the only
friend of mine,
You were
the only love I ever knew,
You made me laugh,
You caused my sun to shine
and in my laughter,
Your touch within me grew.

Now, I look ahead,
to each new day,
Now, I smile,
to think that
I belong to You,
Your in my thoughts
in everything I want to say,
and in my dreams,
in all I'm called to do.

We are a pair,
Just You...just me,
Two of a kind,
as through the world
I go,
Now I've no shackles,
Nor any other kind of bind,
and I'm on my way
to Heaven...
This I know.
