On the day God took you
I thought that I would die
I wondered where the time went?
I asked alot of whys??
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort,
I couldn't seem to hide,
I thought I might be dreaming
That I'd wake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening."
As I wiped another tear.
On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again,
I wondered if the pain would end,
But mostly, I wondered when??
It's hard to be without you,
At times the days seem long,
Sometimes I just sit crying,
When there's really nothing wrong.
I wish we'd had more time,
Before your life was done.
I hope your resting peacefully,
My precious one 
      
                

The Legend of the Thorn Bird

There is a legend about a bird which sings just once in it's life,

more sweetly than any other creature on the face of the earth.

From the moment it leave the nest it searches for a thorn tree,

and does not rest until it has found one.

Then singing among the savage branches, it impales itself on the longest, sharpest spine.

And, dying, it rises above it's own agony to out-carol the Lark and the Nightingale.

One superlative song, existence the price.

But the whole world stills to listen, and God in his Heaven smiles.

For the best is only bought at the cost of great pain... Or so says the legend.

October 26, 2007

2 years have past since you left me.
It  has been the worst years of my life.
Hold my hand while I finish my journey here on earth.
Until we meet again.....

A brief moment of darkness
was all that I knew,
before Heaven's Gate
came into my view.
Loved ones and friends
I had missed for many years,
welcomed me with open arms
and many happy tears.
All the hurt, fear, and pain
that I have ever known,
is gone from my life,
I am finally home.
I gazed upon the Lord's
sweet smiling face,
and for the first time in my life
I knew and felt His grace.
I know that you miss me,
but please dry your eyes.
I will always be watching and loving you
from my new home in the sky.
A cool breeze on your face,
a touch of light rain,
I will send as a reminder
that we will be united again.
Life on earth is but one
brief moment in time,
I am finally home,
Eternity is mine. 

"Pennies From Heaven "   

I found a penny today
Just laying on the ground
But it's not just a penny
This little coin I've found.

Found pennies come from Heaven
That's what someone told me,
Angels toss them down.
Oh, how I loved that story.

When an angel misses you
They toss a penny down,
Sometimes just to cheer you up
To make a smile out of your frown.

So don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue,
It may be a penny from Heaven
That an Angel tossed to you.

Scampy & Meg together again!

Something she REALLY didn't like...

And something she REALLY did...

 Something she never left home without... 

Her secret to beautiful hair....

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep

I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on the snow
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain
I am the gentle Autumn rain

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep





It is said that when GOD takes us to the edge of darkness......
of this we can be sure.......
 HE will either give us something solid to stand on.......
or we will be taught to fly

The Movies...


















Gone but not forgotten.
Although we are apart,
your spirit lives within me,
forever in my heart.





You can shed tears that she is gone
or you can smile because she has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back
or you can open your eyes and see all that she's left
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her
or you can be full of the love you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
You can remember her and only that she's gone
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind
be empty and turn your back
or you can do what she'd want
smile, open your eyes, love and go on

My Mom doesn't know I'm watching her
but I'm watching her just the same.
And I hear each tear fall on her face
at the very mention of my name.
She says it sounds like music to her ears
and can be heard over a crowd.
Oh, I hear each tear fall on her face
when my name is said aloud.
I watch her stumble through each day
as she wishes the day would end.
And I hear each tear fall on her face
as she talks of me to her friends.
But there are few who truly understand.
Oh this I've heard her proclaim.
And I hear each tear fall on her face.
Will my Mom ever be the same?
I know that her smile lights up a sky.
But I don't see that smile today.
Oh, but I hear each tear fall on her face.
Her blue skies have turned to gray.
Oh I send to her my warmest hug
with the rays of the morning sun.
Then, I won't hear a tear fall on her face.
For I shall erase them one by one.
Yes, my Mom doesn't know I'm watching
her. But I'm watching her just the same.
And if I hear a tear fall on her face
I'll just softly whisper her name!
