I Remember

Yesterday was six years since you have been gone.  I wanted to feel sad, but for the first time since you left, I felt warm.  I no longer mourn your passing....I now celebrate your life and my memories of you.  I no longer miss you because I know you are here....your love never left. 

Always In My Heart

I woke this morning from a dream,

I woke this morning from a dream and you were gone…

Gone from my sight

Gone from my touch

Gone from my arm

Always in my Spirit.

I knew you before I was born

I chose you to be the one who would always be a part of me.

Before I was born you held me close to your heart

In your womb I felt protected and loved

After I was born you held me close to your heart,

In you arms I felt protected and loved.

As I grew and no longer fit in your arms,

You held me close to your heart

By your side I felt protected and loved.

As time went on, I held you in my arms close to my heart…so that you could feel protected and loved.

Although I can no longer hold you in my arms,

I will forever hold you in my heart

Always protected…always loved.

Today is a beautiful day, the sky is clear, the air is warm, the sun is bright and a gentle breeze wraps around me

it carries your spirit,

I feel protected and loved and I know you are alive

You voice the wind, your touch the sun

Today is a beautiful day…

Today one of God’s perfect creatures has returned home.
