A Birthday In Heaven
.
I heard you crying yesterday
And felt your heart-sent love
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here)
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near
.
God planned a special day for me
He told me with a wink
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think)
.
I’m getting lots of hugs from God
He’s really good at that
And every time that I walk by
He gives my head a pat
.
Balloons will fill the streets for me
They float up through the clouds
And we have lots of clowns up here
That make us laugh out loud
.
There is a birthday carousel
Jeweled horses ride the wind
With music playing oh so sweet…
The magic never ends
.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings
.
We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts, surprise!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies!

A Thanksgiving Poem
Dear Father who art in Heaven...
Please join our family on this Thanksgiving day
And bless each one as we sit down to pray
As we remember those who have joined You above
So dearly missed and deeply loved.
Please provide us strength on this Thanksgiving day
Bless us with memories of those faraway...
Please grant patience to family and friends as we grieve
And help us reach out to others who are bereaved.
We give thanks to You on this Thanksgiving day....
For Your presence in our lives each and everyday.
For Your comfort, guidance, and never ending love...
And for taking care of our loved ones...in Heaven above.
As we light this candle on this Thanksgiving day...
And it glows in memory of those in Heaven today....
May their lights always shine down on us and give us light...
And may we feel their presence along with Yours tonight.
May the peace and tranquility of this Thanksgiving day
Be an everlasting light within each of us along the way...
Lets bow our heads and give our Thanks to God above..
For our blessings, whether on earth or in Heaven above...
Amen

I am sorry I haven't visited in awhile. My husband was in the hospital, his lung cancer was only in the right lung and now it has spread to the left lung.
I am sorry I haven't visited in awhile but my husband had a bad reaction to the chemo and his legs swelled and got infected and my youngest daughter had brain surgery but I think of you every day, Marian
