Family Poems
+33It happened so fast, no time to prepare,
No time to say how much I care,
No time to give you all a hug,
My sister’s hair, a playful tug.
My instincts told me not to go,
Along that dark and foggy road,
But, with my friend, I took that ride,
We died together, side by side,
Snatched, swiftly from my family,
No last goodbyes,
Remember Me..
At first, I couldn’t understand,
But Grandad came, he took my hand,
He smiled at me and held me tight,
He wrapped me in a golden light.
I travelled to a far-off place,
A perfect world in time and space,
The Angels came down from above,
Surrounding me with purest love,
I thought my heart would burst with glee!
I love you all,
Remember Me..
They took me through a shimmering door,
I met those who had gone before,
They welcomed me with hugs and cheer,
So pleased to see me safely here.
I felt the love they bathed me in,
A warm cocoon, so safe, serene.
I can’t describe the beauty here,
A sacred place, beyond compare,
I’m happy, now, alive and free,
My spirit soars,
Remember Me..
I’m there beside you, when you cry,
I hear you whisper, “Why, Oh why?”
I need so much to let you know,
That it was just my time to go.
I had to get a message through,
To tell you I was home with you,
I whispered in my father’s ear,
I told him I was safely here
And not to worry about me,
I’m with you all,
Remember Me..
I come to you in dreams at night,
I comfort you and hold you tight,
I’m always here, I haven’t gone,
I’m still your Adam, my life goes on.
I brush your cheek, wipe away a tear,
I see you smile, you know I’m here,
I make my presence heard and felt,
I’m moving things around the house,
Please, don’t be sad,
I’ll help you see,
My love lives on,
Remember Me..
I’m with you till the end of days,
I’ll show you in a thousand ways,
White feathers drifting to the floor,
A stunning rainbow at the door.
A stranger stops to say hello,
He smiles at you and you will know,
Those twinkling eyes are really mine,
My beating heart, My love Divine,
Forever with my family,
I love you Always,
Remember Me…
My darling Adam, thanks for proving your continued existence every day, love mom xxxxx

+6I love your stubby fingers
and your crooked little toes
I love your chubby cheeks
and your little button nose
I love your big blue eyes
and your pretty auburn hair
I love your rosy lips
and your dimpled derriere
I know that you’ll grow up
to be such a perfect lady
How does Mama know?
Because you’re such a perfect baby

+1Daddy I love you with all of my heart,
and I think you are so smart.
Every time I cry a tear,
you are somewhere near.
If I have a problem,
you are always there to solve ‘em.
When I get in trouble,
you are your right there on the double.
And I thank God that He,
gave such a great daddy to ME!
Oh daddy I hope you can see,
that you mean the world to me.

+4 Someone I can count on
that I can call my friend.
Someone that will be there
forever, until the end.
You are…
Someone I can learn from
and teach a few things to.
Someone I can trust
a friend who is true blue.
You are…
Someone I can run to
when I feel alone.
Someone who can make
any place feel like home.
You are…
Someone that has been there
from the very first breath.
Someone who has stuck by me
and never, ever left.
Thank You Mom!

+2 As Mothers, we are special.
There is no nobler call.
We are the Masterpiece of God.
He designed us, one and all.
His plans are always perfect.
With each season, there comes change
And, just as Summer follows Spring,
Each life He has arranged.
In the springtime of our youth,
A mother’s love is always near.
She shows us how to serve the Lord,
In the growth of tender years.
She loves us unconditionally,
Has patience beyond measure.
She cultivates our eager hearts and
Thanks God for this great treasure.
As this season of our life
Gives way to summer’s sun,
It’s in these years we blossom
And a new phase has begun.
As a mother, she knows that danger
Into this season will creep.
So, with a prayerful heart, on bending knees,
She prays our souls He’ll keep.
We’re no longer tiny babies,
When a kiss could heal our pain.
It’s then she listens, with her heart,
And quiets tears that fall like rain.
We, slowly, start to break the ties
Of Mother’s apron strings
And, right before her very eyes,
Her little child takes wing.
Her years of prayer and teaching
Are now put to the test
As we begin the search for love,
Which is a awesome quest.
She prays that we are listening
To the sound of God’s still voice.
For, if we are, she knows that “He”
Will help us make the choice.
Then, once again, the seasons change,
As we listen to God’s call,
And, now, her child has made the journey
Through summer into fall.
It’s in this season that life begins
The circle to complete,
As our lives change and we understand,
With the patter of little feet.
We now can know and comprehend
Just what our mother meant
When we heard her thank our God, above,
For the miracle that He sent.
Now, we will teach our children,
Just as to us was taught,
That Jesus gave His life for them
And their soul His blood has bought.
We’ll teach our children to love the Lord,
As they sit down at our knee,
And, as we bow our heads to pray,
We’ll remember our mother’s plea.
We, too, will thank our God, above,
For the children in our arms
And with prayerful hearts on bending knees,
Pray He’ll keep them safe from harm.
Now, we will watch, as our children journey
From spring and on through fall.
As they grow in spirit and in truth,
They will answer to God’s call.
It’s then, as Grandmothers, we reflect
On the seasons and all they’ve blessed,
As we step into tomorrow
And the years of winter’s rest.
It’s in this season we look back
At our joys and all our trials.
With thankful hearts, we turn to God
And thank Him for every mile.
God’s presence has always surrounded us.
He, now, keeps us free from strife
As we journey into the future,
Through the Seasons of our Life.

+2 Hush little child,
whimpering in dreams
your all cosy and warm,
wrapped in rainbows and moonbeams
outside the wind howls,
there’s frost on the ground
And Autumn is whining,
its early warning sound
so hush my baby,
there’s no cause for alarm
for in your life,
you’ll face many a storm
But with God at your side,
there is nothing to fear
Because his love and affection,
will always be near.

+4 Oh Mama, I thought you and I would live forever.
I can’t believe the time for you is coming near.
when you must leave your darlin here.
I’m so afraid Mama dear of being alone,
not having you near.
I lay my head down next to yours,
and kiss your cheek and rub your hair.
And savor being close to my Mama so fair.
