"In the Candle's Glow"

Warm light coming from far below,
Twinkling, sparkling is the candle's glow.
All is well up on the ridge,
The place we know as Rainbow Bridge.

For babies sleeping in heaven's light,
Tended by candles in the night.
Peaceful dreams be theirs to keep,
As they slumber in this night so deep.

Hearts on earth that miss them so,
Take comfort in the candle's glow.
Watching for them in skies above,
Bound eternally by a cord of love.

FOR MONDAY

Always a smile, instead of a frown,
Always a hand, when one is down,
Always true, thoughtful and kind,
Wonderful memories they left behind.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR TUESDAY

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed, and very dear.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR WEDNESDAY

Although we smile and make no fuss,
No one misses them more than us;
And when old times we oft recall,
That's when we miss them most of all.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR THURSDAY

Every tear is a prism through which I see,
A rainbow of emotions and memories,
Though fate has led you to another place,
True moments hold meaning time can never erase.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR FRIDAY

In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay,
But when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back,
To suffer that again.

It's lonely here without you,
We miss you more each day,
For life is not the same to us,
Since you were called away.
To your resting place we visit,
Place flowers there with care,
But no one knows our heartache,
When we turn and leave you there

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR SATURDAY

We often think of bygone days,
When we were all together,
The family chain is broken now,
But memories will live forever,
To us, you have not gone away,
Nor has you travelled far,
Just entered God's eternal home,
And left the gate ajar.

If we had all the world to give,
We'd give it, yes, and more,
To hear his voice, see his smile,
And greet him at the door.
But all we can do, ,
Is go and tend your grave,
And leave behind tokens of love,
To the best loved one God made.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR SUNDAY

Though your smile is gone forever,
And your hand we cannot touch,
Still we have so many memories,
Of the ones we loved so much.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part,
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our hearts.

It’s so strange that those we need
And those we love the best,
Are just the ones God called away
And took them home to rest,
But every time I think of you,
I seem to hear God say,
Have faith and trust my promise
You’ll meet again some day.

6th september 2009
I lit a candle tonight, in honor of you
Remembering your life, and all the times we'd been through.
Such a small little light the candle made
Until I realized how much in darkness it lit the way.
All the tears I've cried in all my grief and pain
What a garden they grew, watered with human rain.
I sometimes can't see beyond the moment, in hopeless despair.
But then your memory sustains me, in heartaches repair.
I can wait for the tomorrow, when my sorrows ease
Until then I'll light this candle, and let my memories run free.

To send them off to you,

♥ Friendship hugs, hugs of love,
Even bear hugs too!

♥ It's filled with the most special hugs,
Only the very best would do!

♥ I hope that you'll remember this
Whenever you feel blue,

♥ Because these special, bottled hugs
Should last the whole year through!

There's no water without rain..
There's no sunshine..
To melt our pain

So here is a fairy..
Sent from above
Sprinkled in gold..
And so full of love

Close your eyes..
And make a wish
Say a prayer..
And blow a kiss

Your Angel will catch your kiss..
And send one back with love
Especially sent down to you..
From heaven up above

Catch your kiss..
Hold it tight..
For your Angel loves you..
With all their might

Tributes For This Weekend

FOR FRIDAY 21ST AUGUST


Grief Is Like A River
My grief is like a river,
I have to let it flow,
But I myself determine
Just where the banks will go.

Some days the current takes me
In waves of guilt and pain,
But there are always quiet pools
Where I can rest again,

I crash on rocks of anger,
My faith seems faint indeed,
But there are other swimmers
Who know that what I need

Are loving hands to hold me
When waters are to swift,
And someone kind to listen
When I just seem to drift.

Grief's river is a process
Of relinquishing the past,
By swimming in Hope's channels,
I'll reach the shore at last.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR SATURDAY

To Those I Love And Those Who Love Me


When I'm gone, release me, let me go;
I have so many things to see and do.
Don't tie yourself to me with tears.
Be happy that we had so many years.

I gave you love.
You can only guess how much that
You gave me in happiness.
I thank you for your love you each have shown.

But it is time I travel alone.
So grieve a while for me, grieve you must;
Then let your grief be comfort by trust.
It's only for a little while we must part.

So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me, call and I'll come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near.

If you listen with your heart, you'll hear
All my love around you soft and clear.
And then when you must come this way alone,
I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home!"


♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥


FOR SUNDAY

Tears

Tears are delightful expressions
Of happiness, sorrow, and love,
Made to release deep emotions,
A special gift sent from above.

When seeing sweet thoughts of a loved one
Midst memories of days of old,
A tear finds a cheek in the moonlight
As thoughts reach deep in the soul.

In moments of anger, frustrations and grief,
When happy thoughts flee like a thief,
Running away with our hopes and our cares,
A tear brings welcome relief.

If unwanted sorrow consumes us
And life seems so hard to bear,
With time a soul is healed,
Restored with the help of a tear.

Sun and beauty bring health to the soul
Through all of the days of our lives,
Deepest feelings of thanks are expressed
Through tears which appear in our eyes.

Be grateful for tears for their presence
Restores our most glorious thoughts
Of laughter, compassion and loving,
The most precious gifts of all.
