The streets of gold run right by,
The greatest garden in the sky.
And Jesus works both night and day,
To build up mansions where we'll stay.1
But in the garden filled with love,
Another soul is up above,
This lady loves the flowers there,
For daily these things she does care.2
She cares for them like two young girls,
In her lifetime, they were her pearls,
With twinkling eyes of starlight bright,
And smiles that render quite a sight.3
She tends the garden sweetly now,
Trees whisper when she touched the bow.
Then talking softly tulips bring,
A smile from the lips of the King.4
The waters chant when dancing on,
Stargazer Lilies caught upon.
But last of all the roses bloom,
Beauty defeats the darkest gloom.5
So up in Heaven she will stay,
Gardening life from day to day.
God's garden tended with her hand,
Her inner beauty brought to land.6

I hope this is ok. I am not sure how this site works. Thanks for an amazing contest. I am sorry for your loss. I am glad the young girls are willing to look at it as her being a gardener in Heaven as death is hard on young kids. Because He Lives, Beka
