Seasons / Mom

Its that special time of year for many

gifts and songs and wonder are plenty

Colors bright and life anew

Holiday cheer and friendship true

Yet for some, the pain of sorrow and

Not knowing what will come tomorrow

In the wake of mourning an childs death

Grief robs the joy and steals their breath

Moment by moment they walk the path

Trying to survive griefs grip of wrath

Be gentle with them this time of year

Whom death has crossed their cries please hear

Hearts are broken 'neath sorrows and tears

Today, tomorrow, and all of their years

Offer them gifts of kindness and amity

As they face each day of boundless calamity

Light and candle, say a prayer for those who mourn

Who cannot rejoice, their lives now torn

Remember their child and honor their pain

Share the burden and help them sustain

This holiday season, the best gifts you can share

Are your heart and your love,

your solace and care....

beautiful tribute to Ronnie  / Cindy Sutton
Dear Karen, family and friends of Ronnie,

What a handsome young man and I know that he is terribly missed.  Ronnie reminds me so much of my son Michael, who passed away at age 21 on feb. 9th, 2002.  I'll bet they are together in heaven right now talking music, cars and women. 

Love and blessings

I am trying to look away from the closed door..I dont kow if I will evr be able to..  / Mom


   When one door closes, another opens. But we often look so regretfully upon the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened for us.

Gods Garden  / Mom
 


God looked around His garden
And found an empty place.
He then looked upon the earth
And saw your tired face.

He put His arm around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering.
He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb.
So He closed your eyelids,
And whispered, "Peace be thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you Home.

In my dreams  / Mom

  I wept in my dreams.
I dreamed you lay in the grave;
I awoke, and the tears
still poured down my cheeks.

I wept in my dreams,
I dreamed you had left me;
I awoke and I went on weeping
long and bitterly.

I wept in my dreams,
I dreamed you were still kind to me;
I awoke, and still
the flow of my tears streams on. Close

I am so sorry...  / Ellen-Travis's Mom (Griefnet)

Karen:  I am so sorry we had to meet on this lonely road.  I hope this memorial was healing for you.  It was for me when I did one for Travis.  You have done a wonderful job.
