There's a place I've never seen beyond this world we know. A place I've only heard of but someday hope to go. It's not on any map, there are no roads to take me there. But it's a place of perfect peace where hearts are free from care. And though I understand some may be saddened when I leave, one day we will meet again that's what I believe. When it's time to travel there I think I'll wear a smile. I'll say goodbye to those I love but only for a while. Knowing others traveled there alone who can't wait to greet me and to whisper "Welcome Home." Judy A. Floyd & Family
