Poem: "PLEASE DON'T WORRY"

Written: June 12, 1988
Please don't worry about me. I'll be all right. I am in glorious peace.
Just know that I will watch over you and guard you with all of my love.
Please don't worry about me. It's really a burden to carry this loss.
Even though you are hurting, time will cease the pain into beautiful memories.
Treasure these as a shield of strength to continue.
Please don't worry about me. There are others who will need your assistance.
Cherish the ones who are there beside you.
Support each other with love and Divine Wisdom.
Please don't worry about me; because life is only a temporary pause until the final moment.
Someday you will come to join me in eternal splendor and everything will be all right.
So, goodbye... for now.
