Heaven Sent
Loved ones are never really given.
They are always Heaven sent.
No matter how long we have been,
They are truly only lent.

No human soul on earth,
Can own the essense of another ...
No matter what kind of kinship;
Be it parent, child or brother.

When God calls his children home,
Our hearts seem, then, to break.
What God saw fit to lend,
He has every right to take.

May our loved ones be aware,
Upon our appointed time of leaving,
That our time on earth is short ...
Because our Father is receiving.
