Walter Hargreaves

Today I touched your face again
and watched you for awhile,
I talked of things deep in my heart
and wished I could make you smile.

I rubbed your head and told you,
how proud I am of you,
For all the little things you did
and the way you did each one.

You show such courage daily
and you teach me how to live,
To make each moment count in life
and to give all I can give.

Did I tell you 'You're my hero'
when I saw you yesterday?
Or did it slip my mind
as I gently put you away?

I know your time on earth is done,
but it's how you lived each day,
You made the most of what you had
and always found a way,
To touch the hearts around you,
to love while you may.

I wish with all my heart right now,
the face I touched today,
Wasn't made of paper
or neatly placed away.

But I will put you on the shelf again
for all the world to see,
I'll talk to you tomorrow
just like I do each day.
And I'll tell you 'You're my hero'
as I gently walk away.

Love to you always, and especially now as Christmas is approaching and our loved ones who cannot be with us are constantly in our thoughts.
I'm sorry I have not been on lately, having quite a hard time with money and health problems, and in case I don't get on before Xmas I want to wish all my GTS friends and their angels a very merry Christmas, and here's to the New Year.....may it be all that you wish for and more.

All my love, Mel. xxxxxxx

♥ღ♥ Gone Only To Others ♥ღ♥

Others, who do not know,
Tiptoe around your name
Unaware that your name is silently
Written on my heart, my soul, my life
And inwardly I cry out to hear it spoken.

Others who do not know
Think of you as only in the past,
And believe
That you only exist in my past too
Not understanding that you are
Past, Present, Future.

Others, who do not know,
Feel you as gone,
And fail to see the reality of you
Never being ‘truly’ gone from me.
The empty void of your absence
Is filled with your presence,
Your life will forever weave through mine
The divine bond cannot be severed.

Others who do not know,
Mistakenly may think that my love has been
Weakened by separation,
Feelings ceased,
Not so.
Entwined and strengthened
My love for you lives on
And has not died with death.
But you know all this,
If only others knew.

Dear Holly, Sorry for the delay in writing Walter's tribute, I have moved house and everything has all been up in the air lately. Thinking of you always. Love Mel (Grace and Francis Doe)

Angels

There are angels in the Heavens,

There are angels on the ground.

There are angels all around you,

Just waiting to be found.

So when you are feeling lonely

Or just a little blue,

Open your eyes to see the angels,

They are there, waiting for you.

Don't forget about these angels

During all of your good times too,

For they like to share your happiness

And the joys that come to you.



They will wrap their wings around you,

To protect and guide you through

All the sad and tragic moments

That this life can throw at you.

They are sent to you from Heaven

From our Father up above,

So remember to look for the angels.

They'll show you all God's Love.

LOVE Henry~Henry jur

..°•.♥.•°.°•. ♥.•°.°•.♥.•.. ♥
Look for me in springtime
As raindrops fill the air
In the splendour of the rainbow
You’ll find my presence there.

You will find me in the fragrance
Of April’s sweet perfume
Drifting through the clover
On a sultry day in June.

An August day will find me
Upon the summer breeze
On the distant sound of the thunder
In the gently swaying trees.

In the golden fields of harvest
Is where I can be found
As autumn time approaches
And leaves comes tumbling down.

In the wintertime when days are short
And chill is in the air
Just look into a moonlit night
You’ll find me lingering there.

When the setting sun has gone away
And shadows fill the night
When the cloak of darkness lifts its veil
I’ll be your morning light.

So when you feel discouraged
And at night to God you pray
You’ll feel me there beside you
I’m just a breath away.
..°•.♥.•°.° •. ♥.•°.°•.♥.•.. ♥

Sorry I haven't been on for ages, but please know you are always in my thoughts. Love Mel (Grace and Francis Doe). xxx

FRIENDS

God must have known there would be times
We'd need a word of cheer
Someone to praise a triumph
Or brush away a tear.
He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of 'little things'
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.
I think he knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain
At trials and misfortunes
Or some goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship
Unselfish...lasting. ..true,
And so God answered the heart's great need
With CHERISHED FRIENDS....like you.

Sending love and thanks to you today

to a special friend

I just wanted to say THANK YOU
In a special kind of way
For all the messages and thoughts
You've shared with me today

I've tried to think of all the things
That say how much I care
And so I'm sending special hugs
For all of you to share

It's a special kind of friendship
Of this you must agree
For we all live in different worlds
Some far across the sea

So I'm sending you this message
It's what I want to do
To say how much I really care
and a very big thank you

Light a Candle

Light a candle for those we mourn,
Into a new life they will be born
Do not look for them at the gravesite,
They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.
They have gone into a new world
Where there is no darkness, no pain
Their light and essence will always remain...

Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place,
They are free to travel through time and space
When we think of them, they are near,
When we sit in a beautiful garden, their voices we hear
When we listen to a divine symphony
We close our eyes, their faces we see...

Light a candle for they have not really gone
With each flickering flame, in your hearts
They will always belong...

Sorry I haven't been on for a while, I have had a lot of changes at home and it has been a lot to deal with! Thinking of you always. Love Mel (Grace and Francis Doe) xxxxx

An Angels Kiss

We never stop to measure
Anything we might just miss
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an Angel's Kiss.

A Kiss that's sent from Heaven
A Kiss from up above
A Kiss that's very special
From someone that you love.

For in your pain and sorrow
A Kiss will help you through
This Kiss is very private
For it's meant for only you.

So when your heart is heavy
And filled with tears and pain
And no-one can console you
Remember once again.

About the one you grieve for
And so sadly miss
That gentle breeze you took for granted
Was your Angel's Kiss.

Love to you Holly. x

~~Tears (by Jack Larsen)~~

Tears are delightful expressions
Of happiness, sorrow, and love
Made to release deep emotions
A special gift sent from above.

When seeing sweet thoughts of a loved one
Midst memories of days of old
A tear finds a cheek in the moonlight
As thoughts reach deep in the soul.

In moments of anger, frustrations and grief
When happy thoughts flee like a thief
Running away with our hopes and our cares
A tear brings welcome relief.

If unwanted sorrow consumes us
And life seems so hard to bear
With time a soul is healed
Restored with the help of a tear.

Sun and beauty bring health to the soul
Through all of the days of our lives
Deepest feelings of thanks are expressed
Through tears which appear in our eyes.

Be grateful for tears for their presence
Restores our most glorious thoughts
Of laughter, compassion and loving
The most precious gifts of all.
