Bob Sweeney

In loving memory of Bob Sweeney whose birthday is February 26

GOD’S GARDENGod looked around His gardenAnd found an empty place.He then looked down upon the earth,And saw your tired face.He put His arms around youAnd lifted you to rest.God’s garden must be beautiful,He always takes the best.He knew that you were suffering,He knew that you were in pain,He knew that you would neverGet well on earth again.He saw the road was getting rough,And the hills were hard to climb,So He closed your weary eyelids,And whispered, “Peace Be Thine.”It broke my heart to lose youBut you didn’t go alone,For part of us went with you,The day God called you home.
