ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ Memories Of You ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
© Alan Pemberton

I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.
Our lives are like a tapestry
With two distinctive sides
The front a perfect picture
The back our secret hides.
Our memories are built like this
Some are clear and real
Others travel in and out
With no specific feel.
Life's phases too are tapestries
With textures of their own
Some we love and some we hate
From all of them we've grown.
We gather wisdom from our pains
From torment we grow strong
Our spirit nurtured by mistakes
Still fated, travels on.
Perhaps one thing which stays the same
And will forever more
Is the love we hold for another soul
The people we adore.
So I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.

ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ In Peace Go Home ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
© Alan Pemberton

Through veils of peace may you ascend
To promised planes above
Where comfort shall await you
In those summerlands of love.

Although my grief is deep and raw
Although my pain is great
I know that you are still with me
I know that you will wait.

For in God's time we'll meet again
Of this I am quite sure
I loved you so much on this earth
In absence even more.

I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.
I asked God for a tree, He gave me a forest.
I asked God for a river, He gave me an ocean.
I asked God for the world, He gave me you.
My heart is lost to you, always and forever.

~Your Loved One lives In Your Heart~

Many tender memories soften your grief,
May fond recollection bring you relief,
And may you find comfort and peace in the thought
Of the joy that knowing your loved one brought...
For time and space can never divide
Or keep your loved one from your side,
When memory paints in colors true
The happy hours that belonged to you.

(Helen Steiner Rice)

♦♥♦ Cherished Memories ♦♥♦

Sometimes it's hard to understand
To see the reason why,
Sometimes it's hard to find the words
To say that last goodbye.
Sometimes it's hard to look ahead
With eyes still filled with tears,
But all our cherished memories
Will live on through the years.
And though there are no answers
The questions still remain,
Sometimes we just can't comprehend
Or understand the pain.
Sometimes it's hard to look beyond
The rainclouds in the sky,
Though all our cherished memories
Will stay as time goes by.
Sometimes when we close our eyes
The only thing we see,
Are moments that are long gone by
Of how things used to be.
Sometimes we need to just let go,
Let tears fall as they may,
Reliving cherished memories
That never fade away.

Tribute Is For This Weekend


Candles Might Not Be Lit Until Monday Next Week It's My Birthday On Saturday So I Will Be Missing Christopher Even More Than Usual... Bless Him X


Grief Is Like A River

My grief is like a river,
I have to let it flow,
But I myself determine
Just where the banks will go.

Some days the current takes me
In waves of guilt and pain,
But there are always quiet pools
Where I can rest again.

I crash on rocks of anger;
My faith seems faint indeed,
But there are other swimmers
Who know that what I need

Are loving hands to hold me
When the waters are too swift,
And someone kind to listen
When I just seem to drift.

Grief's river is a process
Of relinquishing the past.
By swimming in hope's channels,
I'll reach the shore at last.



If I Knew


If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
And pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
That I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
And call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
So I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
To stop and say "I love you,"
Instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
So I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
To make up for an oversight,
And we always get a second chance
To make everything just right.

There will always be another day
To say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance to say
Our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
And today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
And I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
Young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
You get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
Why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
You'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
For a smile, a hug, or a kiss
And you were too busy to grant someone,
What turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
And whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
And that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
You'll have no regrets about today.

Do you make them laugh in Heaven,
does your smile bring them good cheer?
Do you make the sun shine brighter,
like you did when you were here?

The very mention of your name,
the memories of your smile,
The little things you said and did,
are with us all the while.

You meant so very much to us,
there’s nothing left to say,
Except that without you here
there is no perfect day.

For no-one knows the heartache,
that lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times
we have broken down & cried.

We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
but so hard to be without.

We hold you close within our hearts,
and there you shall remain.
To walk with us throughout our lives,
until we meet again.

♥ In Our Hearts ♥
� Rose de Leon

We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we’ll never part
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our heart.

There was a meeting up in heaven
And the angels gathered round.
God spoke, “They will soon be coming,
Let the trumpets sound.”

Make way for My tiniest angels,
"God said, "For they are almost here”
Watch over them; I must go now
And help dry their mother's tears"

And so God went to His special place
To hear the mother's pray,
Tears fell from His eyes as He listened
To what they had to say.

The prayers were very different
Yet seemed to blend into one.
"You have my tiny angel, God
But my crying has just begun."

"I'm human and I’m weak,
God and I don't know what to do;
I need Your love and strength,
And Your help to get me through.”

”Please allow me one more thing
Before I say "Amen" and go,
I need to speak to my babys now,
So my love they will always know.”

God gathered the tiniest angels,
In His arms so they could hear.
Their earthly mothers speaking from their hearts,
And through their tears.

From Gods eyes as well as the angel's,
Tears began to leak,
And the trumpets sounded in Heaven,
As the mothers began to speak.

"I can't hold you… I can't see you,
Or count your fingers and toe's.
Nor wrap you in a blanket,
And kiss your little nose.”

”I'll never feel your heartbeat,
As you lie against my chest.
But to question would be wrong,
For God always knows best.”

”I'll never hear, "I love you"
Or "mommy read to me"
It hurts so much to want you,
Knowing you weren't meant to be.”

”Although you were taken from me,
You will always feel my love.
I know God will allow that
In His kingdom up above.”

Tribute For This Weekend


Candles will be lit as usual on Sunday for Monday



I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all the candles, tributes and photographs they have taken the time to leave on Christopher’s Website they are very much appreciated I read every single one.
I Love And Miss Him So Much.

Thanks again Angela X



Love is like a butterfly;
It goes where it pleases
And pleases wherever it goes.


The best and most beautiful
Things in the world cannot
Be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart


The Watcher

You always leaned to watch for us
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate.

And though we mocked you tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more safe,
Because you waited there.

Your thoughts were all so full of us,
You never could forget,
And so I think that where you are
You must be watching yet.

Waiting ‘til we come home to you
Anxious if we are late
Watching from Heaven’s window
Leaning from Heaven’s gate.


To Those Whom I Love and Those Who Love Me


When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that I have had so many years

I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I think you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I traveled on alone

So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless the memories in your heart

I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can not see or touch me,
I will be near and if you listen with your heart,

You will hear all of my love around you
Soft and clear then, when you must come this way alone I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home"



Friends Are Like Angels,


Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,

As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,

Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,

Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious thing

Birthdays in heaven are a wonderful site
Where generations of family once again unite.
Nothing on earth can ever compare to the sounds of the angels singing Happy Birthday up here

We gather together with our family and friends
And circle the world with love once again.
We know that you miss us and we want you to know that birthdays up here are not much different than below.

For we have cake with candles and one wish we always make that your heart will know love and will never again ache.

So tonight go outside and count the stars in the sky
for as I blow out my candles they will flicker up high.

And as this is happening you'll know deep in your heart that Heaven and Earth aren't really that far apart!
