Poem about President Hinckley

This poem was sent from Aunt Margaret who has sent us some great things to post already. By the way, they just got a mission call to the Nauvoo Temple from April to October of this year. Congratulations and thanks for your contributions to Mike's Blog.

Prophetic Passing
I imagine he's running to Marjorie now,
Yes, running, not waving his cane.

I see him embracing his father and mother

While they keep repeating his name.

I see him now meeting his forebears,
Brother Brigham and Joseph are there.

Sweet reunion of prophets, united by service

That only such noble men share.
I see him embraced by the Savior
While Father says, "Good and well done.

So faithful in stalwart endurance,
I welcome
My noble, most excellent son."
I then hear the ripples of laughter
As he says the reception's just fine,

But he hopes that he'll get an assignment or two

Since there's no need to waste any time.

I can hear his clear voice in the stillness

At the close of this sweet Sabbath day,

Have faith and move forward - there's work to be
done.
President Hinckley would want it that way.
