'I'm Free'
Don't grieve for me, for now
I'm free. I'm following the path God
has laid you see. I took his hand
When I heard him call. I turned
my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play
Tasks left undone must stay
that way. I found that peace at the
close of the day.
If my parting has left a void
then fill it with remembered joys
A friendship shared, a laugh,
a kiss. Oh yes, these things
I too will miss
Be not burdened with times
of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine
of tomorrow. My life's been full
I savoured much.
Good friends, good times, a
loved one's touch. Perhaps my time
seemed all too brief.
Don't lengthen it now
with undue grief
Life up your
hearts and peace to thee
God wanted me now;
He set me Free!
The Rose Beyond the Wall
A rose once grew where all could see,
sheltered beside a garden wall,
And as the days passed swiftly by,
it spread its branches, straight and tall.
One day, a beam of light shone through
a crevice that had opened wide.
The rose bent gently toward its warmth
then passed beyond to the other side.
Now, you who deeply feel its loss,
be comforted, the rose blooms there.
Its beauty even greater now,
nurtured by God's own loving care.
Tiny Angels
Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook his head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so".

Candles in the Night
Candles flame in darkness,
flicker, steadily glow,
bringing light from shadows
and help to soothe me so.
My daughter, like the candles,
gave my life true light.
I use the candle's beacon
to connect us in the night.
As I light the candles,
my wish and my request
is that she'll see my signal
and know my love's expressed.
As her light joins my lights,
our worlds touch and flame.
As I snuff out the candles,
I softly say her name.
O precious, tiny, sweet little one
You will always be to me.
So perfect, pure, and innocent
Just as you were meant to be.
We dreamed of you and of your life
And all that it would be.
We waited and longed for you to come.
And join our family.
We never had the chance to play,
To laugh, to rock, to wiggle.
We long to hold you, touch you now
And listen to you giggle.
I'll always be your mother,
He'll always be your dad.
You will always be our child,
The child that we had.
But now you're gone...but yet you're here
We'll sense you everywhere.
You are our sorrow and our joy,
There's love in every tear.
Just know our love goes deep and strong
We'll forget you never--
The child we had, but never had
And yet will have forever!
