The Legend of the Doves
Once the Lord of Heaven chose two doves,
Both young and fair,
And told them of a very special journey
they would share..
"Go now upon the earth and seek two hearts
Where you may dwell,
And there shall I surely come
And make my home with you as well.
We'll join the two and make them one,
A husband and his wife,
My spirit will endow their love
With everlasting life."

Welcome Home, given by Robert & Geno Mabee
To those I loved and those who loved me,
When I am gone, release me, and let me go.
I have so many things to see and do.
You mustn’t tie yourself to me in tears.
Be happy we had so many years.
I gave to you my love. You can only guess
How much you gave to me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown.
But now it’s time I traveled on alone.
So grieve awhile for me if you grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It’s only for awhile that we must part,
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won’t be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me, call and I will come.
Though you can’t see or touch me,
I’ll be near and if you listen with your heart
You’ll hear all my love around you soft and clear.
And then, when you must come this way alone,
I’ll great you with a smile and a
“Welcome Home”.

Poems
WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
The sun will rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
Remembering how I'd lay my head
On your lap that special way.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me.
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And petted me with her hand.
She said my place was ready,
In Heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But, as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life I never thought
That I would have to die.
I had so much to live for,
So many ups and downs to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought about our lives together,
I know you must be sad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
But then I walked through Heaven's gate,
And felt so much at home;
As God looked down and smiled at me,
From His beautiful golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity,
And now we welcome you,
Today your life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last;
For you see, each day's the same day,
There's no longing for the past.
So won't you sit here by my side,
And wait right here with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart.
For every time you think of me,
I'm right there, in your heart
