"Hope" A Gateway to Beyond

When you passed away,
I was devastated.

When you passed away,
my heart was ripped from my soul.

When you passed away,
I wanted to pass away with you.

When you passed away,
you took the joy from my life.

When you passed away,
I blamed myself.

when you passed away, 
I blamed God.

When you passed away,
is now many years gone by.

Now it is HOPE
That keeps me going every day.

The hope of seeing you
The hope of  holding you
The hope of loving you
That keeps me going every day.

The hope of another chance
The hope of keeping you
The hope of never losing you.
That keeps me going every day.

Hope is my Gateway to you.
Hope is my Gateway to your love.
Hope is my Gateway to joy.
Hope is my Gateway to peace,
Hope is my Gateway to God.

Author's note: I wrote this to the memory of my babies, Kristen and Kristofer. Mommie loves you my darlings.

My Love Is....

My Love is as endless
as the stars above.
My love is as boundless
as the oceans below.

My love will forever be
as high as the moon
as endless as the sea
and the air we breath.

My love is limitless,
unselfish, enduring and true. 
The world will cease to be
before my love will die.

My love is.... Forever

The Passing of a Friend

A friend has passed away this day
A friend we all loved so dear.
And though she's no longer near in body,
Her spirit is definitely near.

A friend has passed away this day.
Her physical presence will be missed.
Though her spirit will always stay.
And we will feel so very blessed.

A friend has passed away this day
And thoughts of her will always be
In our hearts she will stay.
Because you see, she was 'Da'Bee!'
