God saw you were tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
And whispered, “come to me.:
You didn’t deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

With all our love!!
