SHE SITS ON HER CLOUD

In loving memory of my mother

Seated on her cloud, as lovely as can be,
I know mom’s there waiting for me
She sits at Heaven’s doorway to chase away my fears
I’ll meet her there someday in a world with no more tears,
for she sits upon her cloud waiting for me

Sitting on her cloud, she tells me not to feel doom,
that on that special cloud there will always be room.
I’ll be sitting there beside her when my time has come.
Never to feel emptiness or so all alone,
for she sits upon her cloud waiting for me

Seated upon her cloud with a great big smile,
It’s then that I know she’s been with me all the while.
Sleeping with the angels, she now knows no pain,
whispers to me in my dreams that we’ll be together again,
for she sits upon her cloud waiting for me

Sitting upon her cloud, she tells me to weep for her no more,
that she’s finally found the peace she was always searching for.
My mother smiles at me and tells me we’ll never be apart,
for the love we shared was transcending; that she took it with her when she did depart
She sits upon her cloud waiting for me
