In Memory of Joe Bertero In Heaven’s Garden In Heaven’s Garden where Joe is now Flowers and vegetables grow The soil is rich and the sun is bright With plenty of seeds to sow Angels are waiting for their starts Tomatoes and carrots and peas With colorful flowers that warm their hearts Surrounded by budding trees In Heaven’s Garden the rainbow glows As the raindrops touch each seed And in their time will age like wine Without any sign of a weed I see Joe’s name across the door Of a greenhouse filled with love Small boxes of seedlings on the floor And his gardeners tools above In Heaven’s garden the seeds abound They are always in Joe’s sight The peas and beans are getting tall So need to be tied just right The leeks and lettuce will ripen soon And tomato suckers pinched Joe will pick the beans himself From the garden inch by inch In heaven’s garden you can tell Is the place where Joe should be With braided garlic around the gate And birds that fly so free Heaven’s Garden will flourish now With Joe there day and night To see that all is going well And the seeds are planted right!
