My Call Home
I have been a loving sister
I also have been a daughter as well.
Over the years I seemed to have grown.
Then I became a wife one day.
My life still was changing,
then I had children of my own.
I seemed to have grown up some more.
The grandkids came and I loved them even more.
I have grown some more and have aged as well.
I think I have a phone call.
It is God.
Calling me home, But
I am not ready to go yet.
Why can't I stay awhile longer?
I still have lots of love to share.
Family who love me as well.
I guess God knows whats best.
So I leave you now my family,
I leave lots of memories and love.
Until we meet again one day.
