Analysis of Time to sleep



I'll begin with the date,
It was the 8th September 2022,

I became tired and weak,

I decided it was time, time to fall asleep
And when I awoke my family were there, with my spirit i reassured them please do not weep
For I see the gates of heaven
and there I will find peace.
On I went up the golden stairs and there stood my angel,
And with a smile it was Phillip,
We took our final journey, hands intertwined
together we were again
Onwards we went, the gates appeared we were home at last I cheered.
For now I could rest,
farewell to you all,
until it is time to meet again once more.
