Just wanted to say hi,

because you were on my mind.

If We Could Bring You Back Again

 

 

If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.

 

 

If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.

 

 

If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.

 

 

By Joanna Fuchs

 

I know I am still with you
in your prayers, your thoughts, your heart
And though you cannot see me,
I will always be a part
of life's sweet celebrations
in those times when you reflect
on how, though things are different,
through our love, we still connect.
We'll see each other someday
when our spirits all are free,
until then, I am with you
because you remember me.

 

Have you ever thought of heaven and how it will be up there.
Brushing elbows with Jesus Christ, as his hospitality you do share.
Have you ever thought of heaven, with it's streets all paved in gold, that reflects the Greatest Story ever told.
Have you ever thought of heaven and all the joy we will share.
There will be no room for hate and violence, to clutter up the air.
Have you ever thought of heaven and the special love that will be there
and the glorious reunion with our loved one's, that have gone ahead, to help prepare.
Yes, I have thought of heaven and the streets all paved in gold
and long to participate in the final act of the Greatest Story ever told.

Light a Candle
by Paul Alexander

And I will light a candle for you.
To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew.
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way.
Oh, today I light a candle for you.

The seasons come and go, and I'm weary from the change.
I keep on moving on, you know it's not the same.
And when I'm walking all alone
Do you hear me call your name?
Do your hear me sing the songs we used to sing?

You filled my life with wonder, touched me with surprise,
Always saw that something special deep within your eyes.
And through the good times and the bad,
We carried on with pride.
I hold onto the love and life we knew.

And I will light a candle for you.
To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew.
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way.
Oh, today I light a candle for you.

Remembrance

David Robert Brooks  

 

When I am gone, Please remember me; as a heartfelt laugh, as a tenderness. Hold fast to the image of me when my soul was on fire; the light of love shining through my eyes… Remember me when I was singing and seemed to know my way. Remember always when we were together and time stood still. Remember most not what I did, or who I was... Oh please remember me for what I always desired to be... A smile on the face of God

 

I'll paint you a Rainbow

to hang on the wall,

to brighten your heart

when the gray shadows fall.

On a canvas of joy

outlasting the years,

with a soft brush of sweetness

to dry all your tears.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

with colors of smiles,

That glow with sincerity

over the miles.

On a palette of words

I will tenderly blend

tones into treasures

of sunlight and wind.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

that reaches so wide,

Your sights and your sorrows

will vanish inside,

and deep in the center

of each different hue,

A memory fashioned

especially for you.

So lift up your eyes,

for suspended above,

A Rainbow designed

by the fingers of Love.

 

 

In autumn when the trees are brown
The little leaves come tumbling down
They do not make the slightest sound
But lie so quietly on the ground
Until the wind comes puffing by
And blows them off towards the sky.

The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop away from you
like the leaves of Autumn.

~Love to you All~

 

                                 A Hug From God

Sometimes I think I've got it all together-
I've figured out what life is all about.
It lasts a while and then it always happens-
A curve-ball come that I can't figure out.

I struggle to find my way through all the darkness-
the more I try the harder it seems to be.
Until I reach a point of fear and desperation-
It hurts so much I fall down on my knees.

A hug from God will ease a broken heart.
A hug from God will fill your life with love.
A hug from God who is your loving father-
is always there- just look to him and pray.
Oh, God please send your loving hug my way.

The room grows quiet as tears stream down my face-
the pain inside is all taken away.
A warmth surrounds my cold and shaking body-
As God's hand wipes the tears off of my face.

A hug from God will ease a broken heart.
A hug from God will fill your life with love.
A hug from God who is your loving father-
is always there- just look to him and pray.
Oh, God please send your loving hug my way.

 

 

 

Ask your angels to stay as near to you as they can; to help keep your vision clear and your presence simple, so in all the days to come there will be a radiance and Glory in your spirit.

 

 

 

 

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me...

Love, Harry

Sorry I haven't visited in awhile, still waiting for my computer to get fixed.

Please pray for my husband, his lung cancer has come back.

 

I would like to thank everyone who has visited Harry's site. I wish I new the words to express my gratitude. I miss him so much. There are days that I wish I were with him but I know that I am needed here.I still have my baby girl Mary and my granddaughters who need me. I just feel like a big chunk has been taken out of my heart. Thank you all for your wishes it gives me strength

 

Have you ever wondered what makes the wind blow?
Could it be our loved ones blowing us a kiss?

Have you ever wondered what makes the stars shine?
Is it our loved ones keeping watch over us while we sleep?

Have you ever wondered what makes the skies cry?
Could it be our loved ones missing us?

Have you ever wondered what makes the sun shine?
Is it our loved ones giving us a warm hug?

Have you ever wondered what makes the ocean waves come pounding to shore?
Could it be our loved ones wanting to touch us once more?

There are so many of natures wonders and do we really know why?
Is there a higher power making sure we always remember the loved one we’ve lost and shall never forget.

 

Light a candle for those we mourn.

Into a new life they will be born.

Do not look for them at the gravesite.

They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.

They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain.

Their light and essence will always remain.

Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place.

They are free to travel through time and space.

When we think of them, they are near.

When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear.

When we listen to a divine symphony,

We close our eyes, their faces we see.

Light a candle for they have not really gone.

With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong.

Here is one of my brothers favorite poems. One needs to understand that my brother was special and unique. His best friends were mainly his pet dogs.. Brandy was a black lab. We had her since we were small. Boy how my brother loved this dog. He spoiled her like no other. I remember the call saying that she had passed. My brother was heartsick. I looked for a poem just to try to make him feel a little better about the situation. It is posted below: Finally they meet again, and I am sure romping together in Heaven, not only the two of them but with his other best friend Maggie, his german sheperd. Miss you all!!

 

Rainbow Bridge
by
Author Unknown

Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

 

Memory Can Tell Us Only What We Were
By Richard Fife

Memory can tell us only what we were,
In company with those we loved;
It cannot help us find out what each of us,
Alone, must now become.
Yet, no person is really alone;
Those who live no more still echo
Within our thoughts and words,
And what they did has become
Woven into what we are.

Don’t tell me that you understand.
Don’t tell me that you know.
Don’t tell me that I will survive,
How I will surely grow.
Don’t come at me with answers
That can only come from me.
Don’t tell me how my grief will pass,
That I will soon be free.
Accept me in my ups and downs.
I need someone to share.
Just hold my hand and let me cry
And say, “My friend, I care"

Wow big bro. Today has been a day of hell for mom. I so want to hear you just blurt out your feelings like you always did. We would always chuckle when you did that. Not very often would it not be funny. Maybe only we say the humor in it. I always did understand it.  I am so desperatley needing you here to pick up where you always did. I completely know you were the one who helped out, or bore the burden.  Wow what I would do just to hear what you have to say. Please guide us through this difficult time. I know it will all work out. But at this point even five minutes feels like an eternity.

 

Love and miss you!  You were the toughest one out of us three kids. Gosh how I miss that. Thank you for all you did and will do from Heaven.

Lolrd how I miss you does it ever get easier? I don't think so. I don't know why God took you. You always had wonderful words of wisdom. Mom needs your help now. Please guide me in this situation that I am trying to handle. I know that if you were still on this earth you would have given me words of wisdom and point me in a direction that I would not have thought of. I hope heaven allows you to eat becausse you always loved to eat. I miss you desperatly I will always love ya
