Heaven ((Papah died too soon....I never got to say goodbye!))

Heaven

These hard times make us stronger
And though he's gone the memories grow fonder
Everyday
But theres one thing he taught me I know I'll never forget
Its better to give than receive
But theres one thing that I believe

Is that hes up there rejoicing and singing
Because one day he bowed and started believing
That everything would be alright
When he died
Now hes in a place that there is no night
And that place is Heaven

These hard times make us stronger
And though hes gone the memories grow fonder
Everyday
But now hes gone
And I miss him so,
But theres one thing that I know

Is that someday we'll be together up there rejoicing and singing
Because one day we bowed and started believing
That everything would be alright
When we died
We'll be up there in a place where theres no night
And that place is Heaven.

I have learned a lot in my 12 years. Mostly from my parents and some from my friends, but a lot from Papah and I never even realized it. I didn't realize that he gave more than he received a lot of times. And that he loved his family more than anything in this whole world. And one day when I am older I hope that I have that kind of love towards my family. This poem I have written is so true, because the hard times DO make us so much stronger in the end. Papahs death has been the hardest thing I have ever had to go Through, but I am so thankful that this isn't goodbye, because some day we'll be together again forever. I am the most proud and thankful girl in the world to have McKelvy Woosley as my papah.
