When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure.x

For Everything There Is a Season
For every thing there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate;
A time of war, and a time of peace.

LIFE IS NOT THE SAME WITHOUT YOU.



THE SUN STILL RISES IN THE EAST
AND DARKNESS FALLS AT NIGHT
BUT NOTHING NOW SEEMS QUITE THE SAME
EACH DAY IS NOT SO BRIGHT
THE BIRDS STILL SING, THE FLOWERS GROW
THE BREEZE STILL WHISPERS, TOO
BUT IT WILL NEVER, EVER BE
THE SAME WORLD WITHOUT YOU
IT,S SO SAD THAT YOU HAD TO GO
YOUR LEAVING CAUSED SUCH PAIN
BUT YOU WERE VERY SPECIAL
AND EARTH,S LOSS IS HEAVEN,S GAIN

LOVE TRACEY XXXX

⊱♥⊰ ANGEL WINGS YOU WEAR... ⊱♥⊰~

The day you left broke our hearts
and the tears fell like rain,
but knowing that you now have wings
helps to ease the pain.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

We know now when the snow falls
it is Angel dust from you
and when we see a shooting star
our Angel just passed through.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

The rain drops do not make us sad
for they are not tears,
but sprinkles of love falling down,
our Angel again is near.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

The winter cold has even changed,
Jack Frost no longer exists,
it's now a visit from our Angel
and he's left a special gift.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

You also visit in the night,
your wings flutter with grace,
we know now when we awaken
that an Angel has kissed our face.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

When the days are warm and bright
and the sun shines from above,
we feel the warmth wrap around us,
you've given an Angel hug.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

You are with us at all times,
every day and night,
you try to end the pain we have
and the tears that we still cry.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

Though Heaven is your home now
and Angel wings you wear,
you stay close to those you love,
until they join you there.

⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

why wear a poppy

'Please wear a poppy', the lady said
and held one forth, but I shook my head.
Then I stopped and watched as she offered them there,
And her face was old, and lined with care;
But beneath the scars the years had made
There remained a smile that refused to fade.

A boy came wistling down the street,
Bouncing along, on care free feet
His smile was full of joy and fun,
'Lady', said he, 'May I have one?'
When she pinned it on, he turned to say,
'Why do we wear a poppy today?'

The lady smiled in her wistful way,
and answered, 'This is Rememberance Day,
And the poppy there is the symbol for,
the gallant men who died in war,
and because they died you and I are free--
Thats why we wear a poppy, you see'.

'I had a boy about your size,
with golden hair and big blue eyes.
He loved to play and jump and shout,
free as a bird he would race about.
As the years went by, he learned and grew
and became a man--as you will, too.'

'He was fine and strong, with a boyish smile,
but he'd seemed with us such a little while
When war broke out and he went away,
I still remember his face that day.
When he smiled at me and said'Good-bye,
I'll soon be back, mom, so please don't cry'.

'But the war went on and he had to stay,
and all I could do was wait and pray.
His letters told of the awful fight,
(I can see it in my dreams at night),
with the tanks and guns and cruel Barbed wire,
and the mines and bullets, the bombs and fire.'

'Till at last the war was won-
and thats why we wear a poppy son'.
The small boy turned as if to go,
Then said 'Thanks lady, i'm glad to know.
That sure did sound like an awful fight,
But your son-- did he come back alright?'

A tear rolled down each faded cheek;
she shook her head, but didn't speak.
I slunk away in a sort of shame,
and if you were me you'd have done the same;
For our thanks, in giving, is oft delayed,
though our freedome was bought-and thousands paid.

And so when we see a poppy worn, let us reflect on the burden borne
By those who gave their very all
and asked to answer their country's call
That we at home in peace might live.
Then wear a poppy. Remember-- and give!

Lest we forget.

BEYOND THE RAINBOW’S END




Beyond the rainbow’s end, there lies
The land of love and light,
Where shadows never dim the skies,
For there ~~ there is no night.

And though the loss is hard to bear
Of loved one, or of friend,
We know that we shall find them there ~~
Beyond the rainbow’s end.

for my gran with love xxx

THE BROKEN CHAIN

We little knew that morning that God was going to all your name,

In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone,

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,

And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
