Cal’s Sorrow

Lou J. Klaiber : Bushranger's Revetment - Poetry and Stories by Vietnam Veteran, Anthony W. (Bushranger) Pahl and friends

I know our Father hears our pleas
and responds to all requests
so I pray peace will come to your Mom
and in peace she will be blessed.
The sadness you’ll feel when she departs
to be with your Dad and God,
will leave an aching wound in you
but please don’t feel too bad.
She was sent to do a task on earth
and now that job is done;
the time has come for her to be
with the Father and the Son.
Cry and mourn and miss her,
for that is what is right
but don’t, please don’t forget
that day must turn to night.
