In Sympathy
So sorry for your loss, your story has touched my heart. My nan passed away last year and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. My thoughts are with you. God bless. I hope you find this poem of comfort, as I have done. x
What is Dying?
A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.
Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'
That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.
Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.
say goodbye
I need to say goodbye although you're with me.
I stand beside your grave, yet you are here.
I miss you terribly and hope you miss me,
But when I turn to you, you're always near.
I talk to you as though you lived within me,
Not changed but simply moved in from outside.
I know each day you must a little leave me,
But here, as always, you must be my guide.
You were and are and will be, just as ever,
In many minds and hearts, not only mine.
No physical event can such love sever;
Death is a dimension, not a line.
And so goodbye does not mean you are gone:
So long as I still love you, you live on.
love you always grandad xxToni
TOUCHED BY ANGELS.XX
WE ARE TOUCHED BY ANGELS
AND WALK WERE ANGELS TREAD,
THEY WILL GUIDE US ,
WALK BESIDE US
THROUGH THE DAYS AHEAD.
IN THE HOURS OF DARKNESS,
WHEN OUR DREAMS HAVE FLOWN,
THEY BRING HOPE
AND GENTLE HEALING,
WE ARE NOT ALONE.
IN OUR TIMES OF DOUBTING,
STILL THEY UNDERSTAND,
AND FOREVER
TOUCHED BY ANGELS,
WE WALK HAND IN HAND
THINKING OF YOU MOTHER VIOLET.XXXX
An angel here, an angel there,
I'm surrounded by angels everywhere.
When I'm in the middle of a terrible storm
They come with their candles to keep me warm.
An angel to comfort, an angel to guide,
An angel to fill that dark hole inside.
An angel to cry on, an angel who cares,
I'm surrounded by angels, everywhere.
The angels who reach out when times are rough
Who'll listen to my heartache
and all kinds of stuff
Bright in the sunshine and in dark of night
The angels surround me with comforting light.
I guess God is busy and can't come on down
To give me a smile and take care of my frown
So He sent a few angels to brighten my day
And help to carry my burdens away.
So thank you, dear angels, more than you'll know
For watering the happiness and making it grow!

till then my dearest father,
