I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below
with tiny lights like heaven's stars
reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular
please wipe away that tear
for I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
but the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you
of the joy their voices bring
for it is beyond description
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart
but I'll cherish all the memories
you've placed here in my heart.
I can't tell you of the splendor
or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
with our Savior face to face?
I'll ask him to lift your spirit
as I tell Him of your love
so then pray for one another
as you lift your eyes above.
Please let your hearts be joyful
and let your spirit sing
for I am spending Christmas in heaven
and I'm walking with the King.
We love you and miss you, Grandpa.

The ache in our hearts seems to be magnified at Christmas time. But it's reassuring to know that Dad/Grandpa is at peace in a glorious place, awaiting the time we'll all be together again.
Very beautiful and touching poem.
Your Grandpa sounds like such a terrific man! When we are all together up there you better introduce him to me please.
Hey Pam, that was me that left the earlier comment. Forgot that I was logged in under Steve's account.
Take care.
