In loving memory of Aunty Olive

'We didn't get to say goodbye
We're devastated that you're gone
We'd've done anything to keep you here with us
Right here where you belong
We didn't know that life would take
Such an unexpected path
That you'd be gone from us so soon
Heartbreaking reality we struggle to grasp
And bitter though our losing you has been
And so profound is the pain that we bear
We're sadder still at no chance for goodbye
No final expression of our deep love and care
Yet believing that you're not too far away
That your Spirit still lingers quite near
We'll say our goodbyes in our words and our thoughts
Trusting that each one you'll hear
First, know that you were loved in the truest of ways
So deep that only our hearts can give expression
You'll be forever surrounded by our love
For we're sending it straight up to Heaven
Please know that you'll be cherished by each one of us
For your example and kindness we'll treasure
We understand now how your life was a gift
That was meant to bless us forever
And though we'll miss you terribly
We want your Spirit to be free
Free to enjoy all the wonders of Heaven
Not bound to us in our grief
So watch over us with happiness from Heaven ...'

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.

If I could re-live yesterday
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.

So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

Heaven at Christmas

The window of Heaven is open,
The angels can fly to and fro,
And those that I love can all gather,
And look down at Christmas below.

For Christmas is special in Heaven,
The love is so easy to see,
And down from the window at Christmas,
God sends a present to me.

'I will forever be with you,
Your side, I shall always be near,
And though you may not always see me,
In your heart I will always be there.

I will warm up your soul during Christmas,
My love is a fire burning bright,
Then my blanket of love will surround you,
And keep you all through the night.

On the brink of your Christmas morning,
I'll be the star at the top of the tree,
Shining my light on your teardrops,
You'll see a reflection of me.

Then as the gifts are all opened,
With the children encircling the hearth,
Look deep in their little faces,
Their kisses will be from my heart.

For the window of Heaven is open,
My love can pour out so free,
And those that I love can all gather,
And look up to Heaven at me.'

DAD
Dad, how much I miss you, words just can’t explain
Emotions that I feel, and the everlasting pain
Every second of every day
I think of things I did not say

The ache of emptiness in my heart
Who’d have thought so soon we’d have to part
Why did you have to go so soon


What will I do without my dad
You used carry me when I was sad
Now you’re gone away from me
And this sadness will not flee

It all happened way too fast
My present life quickly became the past
I keep wondering why you had to go
After thinking it through, now I know

He took you home because you are his son
He felt your suffering on earth should be done
Now he has you in the comfort his arms
Protected, safe and secure from further harm

Even though you are not here
I know in my heart that you are near
So many questions, I ask why
How you could go without saying goodbye

Now I realize goodbye is something you said never
Because you said it meant always and forever
I know in my heart you’ll sit and wait
To greet me home through that golden gate

You’ll be waiting with that great big smile
See, I am no longer in denial
You are not gone, you are here
In my heart I know you are near!

No christmas card to send this year,
as sadly you're no longer here.
I think about you everyday,
wishing you'd never gone away.
When i wonder where you are,
i always choose the brightest star.
So when i look up high above,
i know just where to send my love

God saw you getting tired when a cure was not to be, he closed his arms around you and whisperded, come to me'' 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 so again. so keep your arms around him lord and give him special care make up for all he suffered and all that seemed unfair thank you lord.

Although you've gone before us
Gone onto that Better place
Although we can no longer hold you close
Or gaze upon your face.
Even though you're no longer with us
You're never really gone.
For you're in every single sunset
And in every breaking dawn
You're in the air and all around
The birds sing you in their song.
You're voice comes to us in whispers
Upon the wind that shakes the trees
You're comforting touch is sent to us
On a warm, soft summer breeze
Your beauty forever surrounds us
You live in everything we see
And I know you're never really gone
Because you're always a part of me
