Heaven

Out in a meadow I see her.
Smelling sweet flowers
and looking about curiously.
Pointing her finger,
as if saying, "What's that?"
She notices the grass so green,
and the sky so blue.
Running about,
laughing and giggling, without a care.
So full of love, so pure.
She has a heart that is gentle,
each heartbeat a joy to us who have her close.
We remember our times together,
and smile as we think back to a time
when the world stood still,
if only for a short while.
I look to see her again,
in the corner of my mind....
catching only a glimpse,
of a sweet baby girl in a faraway land.
Filled with colors and happiness...
looking over her shoulder,
before she bounds back,
She silently reminds me
that we're only a heartbeat apart...
and love knows no boundaries.
