....Silently, one by one, in the infinate meadows of the sky
blossomed the lovely stars - the Forget-Me-Nots of Angels......
I will remember you when flowers bloom
In the early Spring
Remember you on sunny days
-the warmth that summer brings
I will remember you in Autumn
Walking through the leaves of gold
and also in the Wintertime
and the stories that were told
Most of all remembering
Shared days, right from the start
You will be forver near me Mum
You live within my heart
The spirit is the tenderplace, where hope flutters its transparant wings, the gentle place where the candle of healing steadfastly burns, the truthful place where love is infinate, fields of green that nurture all that is good, and the dark place that harbours grief
We all gathered near your bed, so very close to you
We knew the pain and suffering, that you were going through.
I thought about so many things, holding tightly to your hand,
Wishing you were feeling strong and happy once again.
Your eyes showed the story you were tired, as you raised them to the sky,
And at that time, I truly knew, twas time to say goodbye.
I struggled with my selfish thoughts, I wanted you to stay
to sing and talk and laugh again, just like the other day.
Think then we knew the answer, for we loved eachother so
and in the memories that we both held, it was time to let you go.
My heart retains the memories, of what you meant to me
And Mum ...will love you always, but time to let you free.
There will be special moments, as the clouds drift way up high
I see you at your easel, creating rainbows in the sky.
Whilst the birds are singing, flowers bloom, waves sigh against the beach....
....know that I loved you so much Mum, you are never out
of reach.
Love you x
