LOVE YOU FROM HEAVEN
~ Author Unknown

As I sit in heaven
And watch you everyday
I try to let you know with signs
I never went away

I hear you when youre laughing
And watch you as you sleep
I even place my arms around you
To calm you as you weep

I see you wish the days away
Begging to have me home
So I try to send you signs
So you know you are not alone

Dont feel guilty that you have
Life that was denied to me
Heaven is truly beautiful
Just you wait and see

So live your life, laugh again
Enjoy yourself, be free
Then I know with every breath you take
Youll be taking one for me

A friend who lost her husband 4 years ago sent me this poem early on in my grief. I may have even posted it here way back when I was still in that foggy state. It has helped me tremendously!

Thanks, livingbyfaith, for giving us the opportunity to read it today!

Last night after reading that poem I asked my hubby and God if I could have a sign he was around since it had been a while. I heard a loud noise, went looking to see what it was and found a free standing picture of him and me had fallen. Put a smile on my face and I went to bed feeling better. Gosh that poem was so helpful to me. Knowing all of you are facing the same problems also helps. Talked to my cousin who lost here husband two years before me shared she has the same feelings but it does get some better.

I must admit that I do not usually read the poems. For some reason I decided to read this one. I loved it.

I never like to read poems but the last line of this one brought some tears to my eyes.
