THE MONARCH |
March 19, 2010 |
The Monarch
Jessi Hersey
A single Monarch butterfly
floats so-silent-soft to earth;
carried by the breeze
to land on my outstretched hand.
Gazing at the majestic painted wings,
I am consumed by memories:
of releasing Monarchs in remembrance of
your free spirit,
and of the one butterfly
that would not leave, clinging to me.
"That's My Angel!"
Mom had said.
I blink, and no longer see the insect,
but your face, the
angelic features that I have missed.
You smile at me,
warm brown eyes all aglow,
and I can't help but smile in return.
Looking up, I find myself
not in my world,
but in yours:
a world of indescribable and unimaginable beauty.
Your small, warm hand grasps mine,
pulling me down a path
lined by glittering butterflies.
"Follow me!"
I do, and on the way we talk,
me of home,
and you of Heaven.
Being around you after all this time
becomes too much, though,
and tears blur my vision, threatening to spill.
You smile up at me,
"Please don't cry"
and I see that you are near to tears yourself.
Always the protective one,
I manage to stay my tears
and throw my arms around your tiny frame.
"I thought I'd never see you again,"
my voice is barely a whisper.
You look me straight in the eye.
"I'll never leave you," you promise.
"Never!"
Looking farther down the path,
I spot a door of light,
shimmering gloriously ahead.
"What is that?" I ask you.
Smiling still, you reply:
"That is where I live,
where I must go."
And in a flash of light, you are through the door,
and I know I cannot cross with you.
I don't belong here.
All of a sudden, I'm back where I started,
the Monarch gracefully fluttering
upward, circling my head
before disappearing into the sky above.
"Why couldn't you just stay here?" I ask,
although I already know the answer.
You were not meant to live here on Earth,
just as I could not follow you into Heaven.
Remembering your promise, I smile to myself.
Some day, I will pass through that door,
but not today.
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE CANDLES, TRIBUTES AND PICTURES YOU LEAVE FOR MY ANGELS. IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME. I DON'T KNOW WHERE I WOULD BE WITHOUT ALL YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT. GOD BLESS YOU. HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND. ALL MY LOVE GLORIA AND MY BEAUTIFUL ANGEL ANTHONY XOXO

Years fly by like autumn leaves,
But heartache and tears remain,
All I have left is precious memories
Of (both of) you, for today, for tomorrow,
And until my life is through.

You are my "Pot of Gold" at the end of my Rainbow....
There’s a magical place known as Heaven Where everything’s lovely and green, And castles and cottages cover the hills... With a beauty like you've never seen. There are Blessings and Smiles to greet you, wherever you happen to roam. And as much "Luck & Joy" as the shamrocks that grow~ In this land that the "Angels" call HOME!!! Have a Beautiful and Magical St Patrick's Day....

I HAVE A PLACE IN HEAVEN |
March 8, 2010 |
I Have a Place in Heaven
I have a place in heaven
Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears.
It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.
My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.

I Want You To Know
*ღ*
A brief moment of darkness
was all that I knew,
before Heaven's Gate
came into my view.
*ღ*
Loved ones and friends
I had missed for many years,
welcomed me with open arms
and many happy tears.
*ღ*
All the hurt, fear and pain
that I have ever known,
is gone from my life,
I am finally home.
*ღ*
I gazed upon the Lord's
sweet smiling face,
and for the first time in my life
I knew and felt His grace.
*ღ*
I know that you miss me,
but please dry your eyes.
I will always be watching and loving you
from my home in the sky.
*ღ*
A cool breeze on your face,
a touch of light rain,
I will send as a reminder
that we will be reunited again.
*ღ*
Life on earth is but one
brief moment in time,
I am finally home,
Eternity is mine.
*ღ*

Along the way |
March 5, 2010 |
The sunset along my horizon,
is the rising sun above your hills.
it brings the night; a dark illusion,
as it welcomes your morning and your day it fills.
During these moments i tend to wonder...
When you walk home late at night,
along the empty coblestone streets,
and the sun peaks through the landscape into site,
Do you think of me?
With a pack on your back and trails at your feet,
all the creatures, the streams and beauty you see,
during cultural traditions and with all the new people you meet,
Do you think of me?
When awe of nature's creations take your breath away,
and your ears are filled with sweet melody
of the wind, and willows, and booming waterfalls forte,
Do you think of me?
Well...
When my night falls and darkness surrounds me,
I think of your day and pray that its great.
When the morning light is in site and the sun comes to greet me,
I hope it left you a colorful sunset and in a peaceful state.
As I travel and go about my life with laughs and smiles,
I imagine where you are and that you are smiling too.
If trials and tribulations obstruct my path, or if I've had a bad day,
I think of you and hope that maybe once in a while, along your way---
You think of me too.

THE SKY IS FILLED WITH ANGELS |
March 3, 2010 |
The sky is filled with Angels
With puffy lacy wings
The remnants of God's beauty
With treasures they now bring
Each one of them a Guardian
That travels in the sky
To watch throughout eternity
Their parents from on high
Smiles that come from Angels
They fall like crystal rain
Eases earthly burdens
Lifting all life's pain
Halos so astounding
That glitter gold each day
Following their loved ones
In such a perfect way
Wings in gentle breezes
That fall from up above
Kissing every parent
With everlasting love
Angels soar through heaven
With everlasting light
Looking down from heaven
Saying their "goodnights"
Kissing all who loved them
So gently on the face
This life's tender mercy
Each parent can embrace
Wings and shiny halos
Travel from on high
Surrounding all their loved ones
They never say good-bye.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT. GOD BLESS YOU, YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR ANGEL. XOXO ALL MY LOVE GLORIA AND AND MY BEAUTIFUL ANGEL ANTHONY XOXO

I am so touched for joining this memorial website, for it helps me carry through my lonely, painful journey. Life is so depressing without Patrick. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for the condolences, the candles... Mostly for thinking of my loving son Patrick.
I am reading a book called"Mathew, tell me about Heaven" to understand my loss and perhaps get a glimpse of hope, faith. Have you read it? Losing a child is the ultimate pain to endure. What is this new life? I am helpless!

WHERE YOUR HEART BELONGS |
February 25, 2010 |
Where Your Heart Belongs
� Sara A. Wert
It starts when they're firstborn
Your heart in the palm of their hand
They're so very, very helpless
So you vow to do all that you can
You change them and feed them
You walk them, bounce them and cuddle
And with that first little smile
Your heart melts into a puddle
You cherish their looks and coos
You think you couldn't love them more
Then they lay a little hand on your face
And you know of love's neverending store
You watch them learn to coordinate
With their little tongue, hands and feet
Every day they bring such joy
Your life is now so complete
They learn to laugh out loud
They squeal and they grab and they pinch
You feel so proud when they roll over
And ecstatic if they scoot an inch
In just a few short months
Of singing funny, lullaby songs
There's just no way you can deny
With them is where your heart belongs
FOREVER LOVED
FOREVER MISSED
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. ALL MY LOVE GLORIA ANTHONY SHALLO'S MOM

Perhaps you lit a candle,or maybe said a little prayer
Sent a beautiful graphic,or simply thought of him,to show you care
Our hearts are filled with love to know you remembered him
It proves he still lives on,and that his light will never dim
When we reunite on that oh so glorious day
Nicky will be waiting to show us all the way
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,you really are very special to us and made a hard day easier

A Star in the heavens,
Still shining as the day you left,
Still showing your love and lack of fear,
Still twinkling your special smile.
A Star in the heavens,
But so distant, so far away,
But not without love and care,
But now at peace in your place.
A Star in the heavens,
I smile every time I see you above
A Star in the heavens,
The brightest, most beautiful star,
You Shine...So bright...Angel Star!

BUT GOD HAS OTHER PLANS FOR US |
February 21, 2010 |
But God Has Other Plans For Us
Lupe Lopez
From the first day that you came into my world,
I’ll never forget how I held you close to my heart in a little curl.
I could still remember all your growing years,
There were many good ones, and yes there were the tears.
How I long to hold you close again,
I never wanted this to end.
If I would have known it was your time to go,
I would have asked God and pleaded to take my soul.
“But God had other plans for us.”
You’re gentle heart and kind words,
And I still remember that you liked to eat sweet and sour nerds.
You were loving and you were funny,
And when you scared me I had you running.
But there were times I waited behind the door to scare you,
And you always threatened that you would get me too.
And now I sit here alone,
Wondering if I would have left first, what would you have done?
I know my son you loved me,
And oh how I miss you but this isn’t how it was supposed to be.
“But God had other plans for us.”
Since you left, there’s not one day that goes by that you’re not in my mind,
I talk to you often, greet you in the morning, and how I long to tuck you in bed at night.
In front of family and friends, I put on my happy face,
But when I’m alone, the tears just pour and pour I feel them as they race.
When people tell me that I am strong,
I think, are they kidding me pretending as if there is nothing wrong?
I would never want anybody to go through this I ponder,
But this is my sadness, nobody will hear my thunder
I try to understand how could that be,
But why did this have to happen to me?
I still question God and ask Him why he took you away,
But you were here for a while He say’s that’s why you couldn’t stay.
I think I was left here alone for a reason.
I’m still trying to figure out why, after each season?
“But God had other plans for us.”
I have held you in my arms and done the best I can,
I pray that God will hold you close knowing that you were
My number one young man.
Just remember in my heart you are a special one,
and I will always proudly tell the world, "that you were my son."
Each and every day, I feel my heart that aches,
And that’s pretty much each morning as to how I wake.
“But God had other plans for us.”
I try to keep a happy heart and remember all the funny things you did,
Like when you made me laugh or told me something funny that you made my face so red.
There are tons and tons of great memories I’ll keep close to my heart,
I’m told that being sad is how you wouldn’t want me, nor to lose it or to fall apart.
But why so soon, I keep asking why,
God only knew that it was your time.
“But God had other plans for us.”
For now my son it’s till we meet again,
I will do all the right things so that in Heaven I’ll be welcomed in.
I know I cry and cry each day,
But please forgive me Son if I cause you any pain.
And when it’s my time to leave this world,
And everyone will say she’s gone,
I know my son you’ll be there waiting for me to say welcome home mom.
“And that’s the plan that God has for us”
I love you my son, my Ryan.
I miss you dearly,
Love Mom
