How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

Missing You!

Dustin,
There is not a minute that goes by that I don't think about you. I'm sure you are looking down on all of us. Brayton misses you and talks to his girlfriend about you.

I love you!

Even though things are different I pray they stay the same.

Because the hours, the nights, the days; they just came.

I want the cold, the snow, the ice on the ground.

Time doesn't stop just because I am not around.

Shimmering lights, merry wreaths, and decorations on the tree.

But I hope, and I dream that you're thinking of me.

Candles that flicker, burn, and melt away.

Just like the words in my head that I need to say.

Familiar feelings, alone, and without me.

Even though it's old; it's still fresh, and it's new.

Light the logs, in the fire place, but don't let them go out.

You need to hold on to something bright to curve your
doubt.

I want the gifts, and the presents underneath the tree.

Even if not a one of them is addressed to me.

Leave them wrapped, even after New Years they stay.

So there's always surprises, and a chance for a new day.

Amazing

I have never meet anyone that could handle troubles like Dustin better known in town as Cowen. Every time I seen him he was light hearted and joking. Not that I believe he didnt have bad days and let it out. But I do know that God was with him at all times! If I went through half of what this Angel did I would not have left this world in a good place. He is an inspiration and I learned so much about life from him. I believe he was born to show us a lighter side and pass to haunt us if we didnt remember! always loved and inspired.

taken too young

i too feel your pain, no one should have to bear the pain of losing a child, it is a constant pain that you can't describe. our children who suffer from terrible illnesses are so brave and take it on the chin. my joe was 8 when he died and i wish i was as brave today as he was throughout his battle with cancer he is a true inspiration like your son dustin. love and thoughts with you all, joes mum xxxxxxxxx
