Special Angel Day - by Carmelle Gross

We do not need a special day
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.

Each morning when we awake
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.

Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still.

There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.

If tears would make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

Happy birthday little one

For our beautiful baby,

Happy Birthday little one. It is hard to believe that it is two years since you arrived into our lives and made us a mum and dad. Such a magical but painful day. We think of you every day and miss you so much. We love you. From your Mum, Dad and little brother xxxx

A Birthday In Heaven - by Kris Smith

I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.

You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My Birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.

God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).

Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.

There is a Birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.

I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.

But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.

With love from your little Angel xxx

To The Child I'll Never Know - by Gloria Dianne

How can I say Good Bye
When I never said Hello,
Why does my heart grieve
For the child I'll never know?

You were a part of me
For just a little while.
I grieve because I'll never see
The magic in your smile.

I grieve for all the unsaid words
That you will never say.
I grieve that I will never see
You happily at play.

I grieve for all the lullabies
That will remain unsung.
I grieve because I'll never see
Your face gleaming like the sun.

I grieve because you will never know
The comfort of my touch.
I grieve because you will never know
That you were loved so much.

I grieve for all the tomorrows
That will never be.
I grieve because God chose
To take you back from me.

You live among the Angels now
Your earthly mission done,
You will be so dearly missed
Good-Bye my little one.

How deep is the ocean?

For my little Eoin,

How can I tell you what is in my heart?
How can I measure each and every part?
How can I tell you how much I love you?
How can I measure just how much I do?
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

We love and miss you xxxx

Just for a moment

JUST FOR A MOMENT (cited in A Silent Love)

Our hands have touched, our paths have crossed
A love is gained, a love is lost
Just for a moment I kissed the face
Of an innocent child I can't replace.

Just for a moment a maternal touch
Would say the words that meant so much
A soft caress, the gentle tears
That made those minutes last for years.

Just for a moment, I held your hand
My broken heart in your command
So much to tell you, so little time
Why were we punished, what was the crime?
They took part of me when they took you away
As much as I loved you, you weren't meant to stay
I gave you a hug that for always must last
As facing the future means leaving the past.

Our souls have merged, I live for you
Perhaps I'm living your life too
I will carry on; I can always stand tall
Because just for a moment, I had it all.

I don't understand
when a new life
is asked to detour
straight
into Christ's Presence
and not
spend time growing old on earth

I, who am offered the longer route
can only cry and wait
till I too am with the Lord to ask why

But when I stand in the awe of heaven
will the question sit moot
upon my lips forever
while I
sing preaises to God's love

Missing you at Christmas

My special wee man,

We are missing you very much. It is very hard watching people celebrate christmas, knowing that you will never be here with us to open your presents, to go to santa's grotto, to play with your toys......so very hard. Your little grave looks lovely today - but I wish I was cuddling you instead of decorating your grave. It does not seem fair at all. I will be thinking of you all over Christmas Eoin. You never leave my thoughts. We miss you little man xx
