Note: This is a new poem from Tabitha, not found in her two previous books.
Mom, I hope by now you understand,
That it’s Okay, I am in the Promised Land.
He told me that one day I would Fly Away.
My father said, “I am coming for you one day.”
He said, “Fly with me, my Child.” I said, “Father, I am ready!”
He did not take my life; He gave me eternity.
I am with our Heavenly Father,
Where I can play and hold the hand of your mother.
Mom, there are so many flowers! I will save the prettiest one for you!
You have to wait, because it is not your time though; you still have more to do.
When it is your time, I will run to you with all of my charms.
I will receive you with smiles and open arms.
I will watch over you as you have always done for me.
I am your protector; now you see.
Father said, I did a good job by helping so many.
Love always, your Buddy
