Today, a suffering soul is free <br />From pain and strife of every kind; <br />God heard her prayers finally, <br />And freed her body, soul and mind! <br /> <br />The world doesn't know of your lady, <br />But you spent time and cared for her; <br />Today your world may look empty, <br />As your heart feels love lost forev'r! <br /> <br />A marriage is in heaven made; <br />What God had joined had long well stayed; <br />The love ‘midst spouses cannot fade, <br />As plans of God's are too well laid! <br /> <br />Now is the time to pray a lot <br />For your wife's soul to rest in peace; <br />In life, her war was quite well fought, <br />To free herself from her disease. <br /> <br />The separation means one thing: <br />‘Our earthly life will cease some day! ' <br />The good times with her, you must sing, <br />And keep your grief and loss at bay. <br /> <br />All good or bad things see their end; <br />The good we do rescues our soul; <br />To God's decrees, we must all bend, <br />And in His ways, we play our role! <br /> <br />Though death is just a parting phase, <br />As we prepare to see God's face, <br />Let's do our duty to our race, <br />And find our way out of life's maze! <br /> <br />A much loved one is lost today; <br />The loss is great, leaving a void; <br />But with each one, God has His way; <br />We gotta live well in this world! <br /> <br />We got to live as per His code; <br />We must obey Him, young or old; <br />We must do all that God has told; <br />We must face death though weary, bold: <br />Like sheep with shepherd, join the fold! <br /> <br />Fondly dedicated to a doctor friend's <br />beloved wife's demise <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 20-04-12<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-demise-of-your-beloved-spouse/
