I am sorry I haven't been around much lately. I have just dropped in to let you know that my beautiful brother left us on Saturday 10th March 2012 at 9.45pm. I will be back to tell you all about it but for now I will leave you with a poem I created from a vision I had a few weeks ago.
Much love and squidgy hugs,
Nin xxx
DESTINATION
Standing alone in the station,"A strange place to be", he thought
There were no arrivals on 'Train Information'. No ticket had he bought
From out of the mist a train pulled in, "All aboard", the guard did yell
He climbed onto the train and was shown to his seat. The guard then rang the bell
As the train meandered along the track, on the platform were faces he knew
He suddenly felt there was no going back and returned the kisses they blew
"Where am I going?" he asked the conductor. "You'll know when you get there", he said
"All the paths you have walked and the trials you have suffered to this destination have led
It hasn't been easy, your journey's been hard and I know you've been put to the test
But your troubles are over and now it is time for you to sit back and rest"
As the train rattled on through the darkness of night he kept closing his eyes in sleep
Dreaming of those he had left at the station knowing their love he would keep
He opened his eyes as the train slowed down. The guard said, "Sir we are here"
He got up from his seat and walked onto the platform. A familiar man did appear
The man slowly turned, looked him right in the eye and he opened his arms with a smile
He said, "Welcome home, my beautiful son I've been waiting for you for a while"
And when I board that train to my last destination I hope on the platform they'll be
With a smile on their faces and arms reaching out, standing there, waiting for me.
