We miss your face, We miss your smile. And we know we won't meet, For quite a while. You left your memories, In the past. And we'll make sure, That they are sure to last.
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 snow, I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain.
I'll miss you so much I thought of you as a friend. And I hope this life wasn't your end. You where so pretty with your blonde hair. And I bet you look even more pretty in heaven up there.
On the Window I draw my heart, the place where you belong, I watch as it cries, it weeps for you and sings a mournful song. Tis many years since you sang for me and my smile shone in your eyes.
I lay awake, Rain beats down outside my window, The sound so soothing yet my head is uneasy, Trying to clear all thoughts, But one stands strong.

You used to have a name. That I can't remember now. I'm sure that in the future. It'll all come back somehow. You used to be so raucous. You'd back me in my fight. And in a quiet moment.
Gone now but not forgotten Forever in our dreams It's crazy this world we live in, things never as they seem.
I miss you still I am happy your life was full I loved your thirst and drive I loved that you always strived I loved that you were so positive I loved that you took everything in Your stride But most...

Happy Birthday, Honey, A pity it isn't sunny. I brought you these flowers, Watered by summer showers. I wish you could be with me, We'd sit under our special tree.
The fields covered in vibrant red. Too many have lost their lives, Are dead. Deafening gunfire has just ceased, Man proven once again to be the beast.
I did not weep when my father died. The pain and heartache,held inside. There were no teardrops from my eyes. but my soul was screaming to the skies.
This is a short story about a very special lady.. In 2005 i first met her, i have never met any other quite like her, she was kind, considered, emotional, generous, funny and amazing.
They say time heals all wounds both great and small. But I don’t think that’s the truth at all. A broken heart can never fully mend. You lose a little piece each time you lose a friend.
My favourite song right now...
My life was full, varied and long. But now it's time for me to sing a different song. PLEASE remember me fondly, with memories good. For I tried to love you all, like a mother should.
Hopes are high around the world as clocks begin to chime, From Alaska down to Sydney they announce a different time.
Poem for my dearest nan.
Standing still, so mighty you tower, the others look up at your worldly power. People from everywhere had admired your class, not knowing you were made of glass.
You left us today but your still here with me They said you went in your sleep, peacefully. Ninety four years of loving, laughing and crying. I wish I could have seen your smile just one more time.
Nobody stops, They pretend they don't stare, When they see you, old man, just sitting there. On that brown painted bench in that popular park, Sometimes until way after dark.
[For my wonderful Nan, who can no longer be with me in person, but who is always here in my heart.] I made for you a garden Where lilac roses bloom And in a peaceful corner I built a bench for two I...
