Just Once


Just once, I wish I had heard the words I had to to miss.
Just once I wish I could've seen you.....
and gave you a Mother's kiss.
Just once I wish I could've seen the look on your face.,
Or took you in my arms, sweet child,
and felt you in my embrace.
I wish I could've been there,
When you first let out a cry.
Just once I wish I could've seen you,
before you soared with angels on high.
How your daddy and I cherished you,
before we had time to prepare.
Just once I wish I hadn't listened
when I was told you were gone.
For I was then left with empty arms,
I didn't want to be left alone.
I wish I could have heard you laugh.....
Or seen you shed even one tear.
But just once wouldn't be enough,
I'd want you forever to stay here.

The Sound of a Heartbreak

You've heard that awful sound before.....
Oh how sad to say, but it's true!
And it must be the most horrible echo
that still travels all through you!
Momma's can hear so many things,
that other's can't seem to hear.
Like the sounds of a sweet whisper
coming from a baby's ear~!
Or the sounds as a child is playing.....~!
Yes we hear their every cry~!
And oh what a sound they make....
When they ask "Why Momma, Why?"
But the worst sound of all, I'm sure....
I'm sure is what you heard that terrible day,
"..... I'm sorry, we did everything we could....
but your baby has passed away~!"
Yes, a momma hears many sounds!
Joyous sounds a child can make...~!
But, thank GOD, not all momma's hear...
the sound of a heartbreak~!

Where Flowers Never Fade

Angels, I have seen them
my companions in the light
My graceful guardians
that always make me bright
And they whisper to me
you and I will meet again one day
That I will reach out my hand
and lead you down the final way
.... to the garden
where flowers never fade
to the kingdom of heaven
where wonderful dreams are made
I have wandered at paths
crossed meadows in bloom
seen nothing but happiness
in this eternal room
Yet loneliness sometimes befalls me
Cause I miss those days so much
to be to hold my beloved ones
to caress, to kiss, to touch
But it grieves me to see you crying
so wipe away those tears of yours
I did not close the gate forever
I opened new unexplored doors
Even though my heart stopped breathing
my spirit did not  really die
and we did not bid each other farewell
we only said a slight good bye
And my spirit will always be with you
I will never let go of you, Never
Cause the day when we meet again
we will embrace each other forever and ever
