| Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints upon the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain and I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die. |
| Her Journey Has Just Begun Don't think of her as gone away-- her journey's just begun life holds so many facets-- this earth is only one Just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing that we could know, today, how nothing but our sadness can really pass away. And think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched... for nothing loved is ever lost-- and she was loved so much. |
| A Little Room In Heaven Theres a little room in heaven with windows all around, for you my precious freind to look down on this ground. From your little room in Heaven, you're not far at all from me, for my precious freind you're in my memory. So my precious freind be happy, and someday you will see, someone will be holding you, and that someone will be me. i never will forget you, with your little eyes so blue, the way you turned your� head, and looked me through and through. So until that house in heaven has an extra room for me, I'll keep you locked up in my heart and in my memory. |
| ��� �� Telling It Over Again. � In each re-telling there comes a little bit of healing, a little more acceptance of the reality of our loss in��� each re-telling there comes another acknowledgement, of the uniqueness of the personhood of our precious missing child.In each re-telling there comes a little less��� uncertainty, a little more internal peace of the finality of their death.In each re-telling there comes a greater recognition,an important affirmation of the memories we hold dear.In each re-telling we seek a patient audience, who'll graciously accept our need to tell them one more time. |
 |
| THE LONG FOREVER You left us so quickly, there were no goodbyes. How long this forever, your death and our lives. The sadness, the anger, the loneliness of three, preferring four always, how small, this new we. |
| Men Do Cry by Ken Falk I heard quite often "men don't cry" though no one ever told me why. So when I fell and skinned a knee, no one came by to comfort me. And when some bully-boy at school would pull a prank so mean and cruel, I?d quickly learn to turn and quip, "It doesn?t hurt," and bite my lip. So as I grew to reasoned years, I learned to stifle any tears. Though "Be a big boy" it began, quite soon I learned to "Be a man."And I could play that stoic role while storm and tempest wracked my soul. No pain or setback could there be could wrest one single tear from me. Then one long night I stood nearby and helplessly watched my daughter die. And quickly found, to my surprise, that all that tearless talk was lies. And still I cry, and have no shame. I cannot play that "big boy" game. And openly, without remorse, I let my sorrow takes its course. So those of you who can?t abide a man you?ve seen who?s often cried, reach out to him with all your heart as one whose life?s been torn apart. For men DO cry when they can see their loss of immortality. And tears will come in endless streams when mindless fate destroys theirdreams. |

| as a family we form a circle and sometimes that circle becomes broken and not whole any more we lose people who mean so much to us and we dont know how we are going to go on with our lives but some how we do and our circle forms again and then we relize that it is our family that took us back in the circle and the only reason why we go on is because we know that one day we will be together again we just need to keep our circle in tack and forgive and forget about what we are fighting about if i have learned anything these past couple of months that is life is short we should love each other and be there for each other because our family is a circle and it dosent need to be broken anymore we need to stay strong and safe and just love each other for who we are LOVE AND MISS YOU JOELLE |
| Dear Sweet... Dear Sweet Sister and Brother, please don't cry, I'm have lots of fun right now, and watching over you from up high. Dear Sweet Aunty, smile again for thee, I'll never be afraid of the dark again 'Cause the light of the Lord always shines on me. Dear Sweet Father I'll never feel sick, or tired, or pain And I'll never know the meaning of fear. And Dear Sweet Mother, you'll never be alone, I'm waiting for you, hand & hand with my God, waiting for the day, you come home |
| If my tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven to bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye. You were gone before I knew it, only God knows the reason why. My heart still aches in sadness and secret tears will always flow, I want so much to hug you and hear your voice once more, If only I could reach right out and open Heaven's door. |
| To Those I Love and Those Who Love Me When I am gone, release me, let me go, I have so many things to see and do, You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears. Be happy that we had so many years. I gave you my love, You can only guess, How much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it is time I travel alone. So greive a while for if grieve you must, then let your grief be, comforted by trust. It's only for awhile that 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 will come.Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near. And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear, All of my love around you, soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile, and say,....... "Welcome Home" |
| Tomorrow Without Me When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see; If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me, I wish so much you wouldn't cry, the way you did today, while thinking of the many things we didn't get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, and each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too. When tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand, that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand. It said my place was ready in heaven far above, and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye, for all life I'd always thought I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for, so much yet to do, it seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you. I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday, just even for awhile, I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile. But then I fully realized that this could never be, for emptiness and memories would take the place of me. And when I thought of worldly things I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow. When I walked through Heaven's gates I felt so much at home, God looked down and smiled at me from His great golden throne. He said, "This is eternity and all I've promised you". Today your life on earth is past but here it starts anew, I promise no tomorrow but today will always last. So when tomorrow starts without me don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me, I'm right there, in your heart. |

when i was nine and a half years old,you came in this world to me.I was jealous and unsure of this child i was to see. you looked as beautiful as a rose blooming in may, for i stared in awe and had not one single word to say. i could not understand the reason why you were here,my life was now full of confussion,frustration and fear. i was no longer an only child in this life i have to live, for a brand new baby sister a gift for God to give. We had our disagreements and little fights from time to time, but in the end we would agree and decide that were fine. I grew up to love and cherrish you not knowing of what would be, for now you are an angel watching over me. May God bless and keep you in his arms so warm and tight, And know that we will meet again someday, when the time is right. So,as you watch over me from way up in the light, I know now that your death was the thing that saved my life. Love you always' your sister Marloe |
