Angel Wings

A precious angel slipped away, no one heard a cry. No time for Dad and Mommy to sing me lullabies.
My time with you was much too short. I had to leave too soon, But love had joined us as I grew inside my Mommy
womb. It wove its way withing our hearts, in all our hopes and dreams,
Until the very purest love became my tiny wings. Although I could not
stay with you, I knew right from the start, That once you felt your angel's
love, you'd keep me in your hearts.
I am just alittle angel but my time was not in vain. As dark clouds that
surround you give way unto the sun. My precious parent you will see that any heart will sing, If only for a moment it is brushed my angel wings.

My Little Angel

I felt your presence there inside of me, nestled soft and warm; Sweet scent of baby's breath, precious words left unadorned.I saw your tiny heartbeat, then I knew that you were fine; A perfect baby we created,one that would be mine.Then that tragic day it came there was nothing I could do, Only wait and hope
for the precious life of you.Yes in the beginning
your daddy was afraid;
Only he would love you unconditional and never run away.He loved you more this I do know, as he cried for you that day, When the doctor said that you were gone,
daddy wanted you to stay.He would have held you close to him, and see your perfect form, A gift of daddy's love,
would have kept you safe and warm.Only now you are an angel over me beautiful and bare, My heart would hurt if you cried for me and mommy was not there.Still we are together in my heart and memories, You are still a part of my memory.Rest gentle now 'sweet baby' there is no pain you are never alone, I know you are with the guiding angels in you peaceful home.I will come with you someday only now is not my time, Then we will be together again again you will be mine.

The world may never notice
If a rosebud doesn't bloom;
Or even pause to wonder
If the petals fall too soon.
But every life that ever forms,
Or ever comes to be,
Touches the world in some small way
For all eternity.
The little one we long for
was swiftly here and gone.
Bur the love that was then planted
Is a light that still shines on.
And though our arms are empty,
Our hearts know what to do.
Every beating of my hearts says
"I remember you".

Footprints in the sand

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he
was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across
the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene,
he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one
belonged to him, and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,he
looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that
many times along the path of his life there was only one
set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the
very lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord
about it. "LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, youd'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during
the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of
footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most
you would leave me."

The LORD replied, "My preious,precious child, I love you and
I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprits, it was then that I carried
you."

God on His throne in heaven
Lokked round at His flowers so fair
And then sought a blossom on earth
To add to those He had there
To be part of such heavenly Company
The bloom must be pure and sweet
And the little bud that was chosen
Was the child who had played at our
feet.
Sorrow is great at the loss of our child
At the parting with one we love But the
parting was made that our child might go to brighten
the heavens above.

A Mother's Love

A mother's love is something that no one can explain, It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain, It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may, For nothing can destroy it or take that love away... It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking, And it never fails or falters even though the heart is breaking, It believes beyond believing when the world around condemns, And it glows with allthe beauty of the rarest, brightest gem... It is far beyond defining it defies all explanation, And it still remains a secretlike the mysteries of creation...
