2 Years have come so quick

Hi my shinning star.
I can not believe 2 years have come so quick. It seems like yesterday that you feel asleep. Miss you so much. Talk about you all the time to Kerry and Nico. Mum,dad and Anthony miss you heaps. It is still hard for mum to come on here to talk to you so I do it for her. I had loads to say but my mind has gone blank and my eyes are filling up with tears. I know you would not want me or anyone of us to cry but it still hurts and is very hard. We all miss you and wish we could see, touch, hug and kiss you just one more time. Just to hear your voice or hold your hand but I will just have to wait until I meet you up at the big golden gates.

Sleep well my Angel until we meet again all ways in my heart.
Loads of hugs and kisses sent up o heaven for you. Keep watching over all of us.
Miss you and love you loads
Love
Jenny xxxxxxx

If my tears could bring you back
theres nothing else i'd ever ask
with tears your memory I now clutch
what i'd give to feel your touch

My vision the tears would blur
they let me see you as you were
they'd build a stairway straight to thee
bringing you back here to me

Down my face the tears would roll
to bring you back for me to hold
not a day would pass you'd be alone
if my tears could bring you home

Down from heaven up above
i'd wrap you in my love
tears falling unable to talk
down the stairs to meet me you'd walk

From heaven god would send you here
to end my sorrow and dry my tears
if only my tears could bring you home
they'd be forever etched in stone

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.

In Sympathy

So sorry for your loss. My nan passed away in July and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. My thoughts are with you. God bless. I hope you find this poem of comfort, as I have done. x

What is Dying?

A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.

Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'

That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.

Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
To bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say good-bye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.

One lifetime wish:

If we could have one lifetime wish
A dream that would come true
We'd pray to God with all our hearts
For yesterday and you
A thousand words can't bring you back
We know because we've tried
And neither can a million tears
We now because we've cried
You left behind our broken hearts
And happy memories too
We never wanted memories though
We only wanted you!
