This is a poem
I had received the very 1st Christmas
 
My wish for you this Christmas season
is to always know that the ones we loved and loss are
never to far away from watching over us ...
They will guide us thru our everyday lives if we just open our hearts and listen.
I hope this touches you as much as it has touched me .

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below
with tiny lights like heaven's stars reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular please wipe away that tear
for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear
but the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you of the joy their voices bring
for it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart
for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I can't tell you of the splendor or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas with our Savior face to face?

I'll ask him to lift your spirit as I tell him of your love
so then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.

Please let your hearts be joyful and let your spirit sing
for I am spending Christmas in heaven and I'm walking with the King.

A Personal Note From Wanda
Lysandra Kay Bencke was my thirteen year old handicapped daughter.
On Christmas day 1997, Lysandra had a seizure
and was in a coma for five days. During those five days
I wrote the poem "Christmas in Heaven".
I sent it out in belated Christmas cards to friends and relatives that year.
They also sent it on to other friends and relatives,
thus how the poem and the story behind has been changed.
