The Visit
For Alfie – R.I.P.
“My gladiator lay down his shield and gained his wings… absolutely heartbroken.” said his father, Tom Evans
The visit
I called today, to visit you, I didn’t stay for long,
I only bought a message, hidden in an angels song,
I came to give you all my love, if only for a while,
But I wanted you to see me, and remember how I smile.
The angels sent me to you, but so precious is my love,
That they have said I must return, to stay with those above,
Heaven is my birthright, it is my righteous place,
But I wanted you to see me, and my sweet angelic face.
Do not grieve because I left you, it was not my place to be,
My place is with the father, he has chosen that for me,
But although I am not with you, even though I am unseen,
Each time you hear a ‘whisper’, you will know that I have been.
‘Night God bless’ xx
