Ocean Beach in San Francisco

Somewhere in heaven

You wait for me

Sitting on an angel's bench

Beside a golden sea.

Although I miss you

I know you are healed

That's worth the pain

Inside that I feel.

I dream of you 

Your dimpled smile

You're healthy now

And can walk a mile.

One day we will sit

On a puffy cloud of white

In a sky of azure blue

As we bask in God's light.

Somewhere in Heaven

Souls reunited

Words without sound

Eternity to spend together

Hearts reignited.
