My First Christmas in Heaven- Poem

This poem, my mother found right about at Christmas time last year- Wendy's first Christmas in Heaven. It is a beautiful poem- and wanted to share it too....

"My First Christmas in Heaven"

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below.
With lights like "Heaven's" stars reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular- please wipe away that tear.
For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear.
But the sound of music cannot compare with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you the joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me. I see the pain inside your heart.
But I am not so far away, we really aren't apart.

So be happy for me, dear ones, you know I hold you dear.
And be glad I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I send you each a special gift from my heavenly home above.
I send you each a memory of my undying love.

After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold.
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.

Please love each other as the Father said to do.
For I cannot count the blessings or love He has for you.

So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear.
Remember I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.


Our first Christmas without Wendy was definetly hard- and without Jewell. So much loss last year. This poem was really uplifting to read. I am sure that every year without her will seem a little easier. But, we will always miss her the same! Love you Woo!
