I Do Believe
by Jennifer Janiszewski
There is nothing i can do,
to make him come back
There are no words I can say,
that can replace the words you long to hear
There are no answer's I can give,
that will satisfy your questions
There is not another soul I can introduce you to that will ever replace his
And, there is no love I can offer that will ever replace the love you shared
I can not promise your broken heart will ever be complete
I will not say it could have been worse
I will not deny it was a tragedy
I will not lie and tell you he will come back
He never really left
I do promise he hears you when you speak
I will say he loves you no matter the distance
I will not deny he is in a better place
And, I will not lie; he is waiting to greet you someday
He is every you step you take
He is in everything you do
He is the air you breathe
He is every beat of your heart
" He is like the wind. You can not see him...but you will always feel him"

Words and music by bob seger
Take away my inhibitions
Take away my solitude
Fire me up with your resistance
Put me in the mood
Storm the walls around this prison
Leave the inmates
Free the guards
Deal me up another future
From some brand new deck of cards
Take the chip off of my shoulder
Smooth out all the lines
Take me out among the rustling pines
Till it shines
Like an echo down a canyon
Never coming back as clear
Lately I just judge the distance
Not the words I hear
Ive been too long on these islands
Ive been far too long alone
Ive been too long without summer
In this winter home
Still if we can make the effort
If we take the time
Maybe we can leave this much behind
Till it shines
See the rich man lost and lonely
Watch him as he dines
Sitting there just testing all the wines
Till it shines
Butterflies
Butterflies delicate,
butterflies blue,
butterflies still
remind me of you.
We are here for a while,
then we are gone,
but not forgotten,
for we will be changed
into something more beautiful.
Like the butterfly,
we do not really die,
but shed only
our outer shell.
We then become
even more radiant,
when in our glory,
with Him we shall dwell.
So my child do not grieve,
when I say goodbye,
for to the child of God,
death has no sting.
For we are transformed
into new creatures,
in garments of white.
While singing His praises,
we are filled with His Light.

WHEN I MUST LEAVE YOU♥♥♥
When I must leave you for a little while
Please do not grieve and shed wild tears♥
And hug your sorrow to you through the years.
But start out bravely with a gallant smile;♥
And for my sake and in my name
Live on and do all things the same,♥
Feed not your loneliness on empty days,
But fill each waking hour in useful ways,♥
Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort you And hold you near;♥
And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky!♥

Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference in your tone, wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was, let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner.
All is well."
Canon Henry Scott Holland
God's Will
Not by choice but by God's Will
We've been left with memories that will only fill
A part of us that's left behind
Like dust in the wind and soon to find
That although we have faith, the day has come
That this dream is real and we're no longer numb
The presence of what I know in my heart
Will keep us together, never to part
Your smile has graced us to no end
A time for all of us to begin
Laughing, loving, caring for each
We no longer search, it's within our reach
You have blessed us all with something we lack
We will learn from you and always look back
God's Will has left us with a part of you
That will grace each day with a morning dew
To wake up to butterflies fluttering about
And the knowledge that we are not without
Your smile, your laughter, your love, your appeal
This, my dear, must be God'sWill.

My Hero
by Debbie Hinton Young
As I ponder the love that I saw in his eyes,
A Godly love, given without compromise....
I recall many times that he stood by my side,
And prodded me on with great vigor and pride.
His voice ever confident, firm and yet fair,
Always speaking with patience, tenderness and care.
The power and might of his hands was so sure,
I knew there was nothing we couldn't endure.
It's true, a few others provided insight,
Yet, he laid the foundation that kept me upright.
He's the grandest of men to have lived on this earth,
Although he's not royal by stature or birth.
He's a man of great dignity, honor and strength.
His merits are noble, and of admirable length.
He's far greater than all other men that I know,
He's my Dad, he's my mentor, my friend and hero.

Grieve not.....
Grieve not,
nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you.....
I loved you so --
'twas Heaven here with you."

After Glow♥♥♥
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.♥
I’d like to leave an after glow
of smiles when life is done.♥
I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,♥
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.♥
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
to dry before the sun♥
of happy memories
that I leave when life is done♥
