CHRISTIAN POEMS & CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONALS FOR THE WEARY & SEARCHING FOR GOD
WHAT'S IT LIKE IN HEAVEN, COUSIN ED ?

 By Frank E. Henrich October 8, 2005

(My first cousin Ed died. This poem was written in his memory.)

Your daughter called today
Said you had passed away,
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Don’t mean to be nosey
Is Heaven so very rosy?
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Now you are, so free
Now you can, tell me,
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

However now I can, not hear
Your voice is silent, I fear,
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Must I wait, on this trail?
For that journey, thru the veil,
To know, what’s over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed.

I’ll just have, to hold
To Jesus’ promises, so bold,
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Your marks here, on Earth
Compassionate intellect, from birth,
What’s it like, over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Well you can’t, blame me
For looking for the key,
What’s it like over there,
On the other side, Cousin Ed?

Tony Snow said as he faced
terminal cancer in 2007,
“God hasn’t promised us tomorrow,
but He has promised us eternal life .”

HEAVEN BOUND FOR ETERNAL LIFE
WRITTEN IN A HUMORIOUS POEM
going up yonder a knockin' on heaven's door. Going to see them pearly gates, my new heaven home to sing a heaven song.

Yep,you are right, I am hankering to go knockin' on heavens for to see the pearly gates and sing heaven song.   I am heaven bound to be going up yonder to my new heaven home.
