Angela Helena Butler

I dreamed last night of Heaven,
As I follwed you there,
I felt your presence, heard your heart,
I almost touched your hair.

I remember crying,
Just because I missed you so,
Though I was right behind you,
I didn't want you to go.

I begged for a reminder,
To help me see your face,
A thing to hold and touch,
But it left an empty place.

I looked for you in everything,
I asked for you by name,
I know that you were with me there,
I'll never be the same.

I dreamed last night of Heaven,
I ache for one more glimpse,
Of the love I felt while near you,
And the beautiful heart I miss.

Angels

*♥ღ*♥ღ *♥ღ*♥ღ♥ღ*♥ღ*♥ღ*♥ღ
I looked out of the window
About twelve o'clock last night
And saw two shooting stars
Up in the sky
And as I stood and watched them
Right before my eyes
They opened up Heavens gates
Where angels stood inside
Then I saw you standing next to them
And you where wearing wings
And right above your head I saw
A Stunning golden ring
That sparkled in the distance
Then shone right down on me
Now every time I close my eyes
Your face is all I see
An angel up in heavens
Beyond the skies above
Watching over all of us
Filling our hearts with love

Our Hearts Will Always Touch by Ranja Kujala

When I laid there beside you,
Could you feel me there?
My arms were wrapped around you,
And I was stroking your hair.

I was talking about all the good times,
For me they were every single day.
I wanted you to feel love and comfort,
And happy in some way.

I watched your every breath,
And prayed that each one wasn't your last.
The time we got to share together,
Went by too quick...Too fast.

I wanted you to wake up,
Please Nanny...Open your eyes.
Tell me this is a nightmare,
And not our goodbyes.

As your last breath grew closer,
We lay there peacefully together.
My heart continually breaking,
Because I wanted you forever.

Then there it was,
Your final breath of air.
I didn't want to believe it,
This is so cruel, and not fair.

I held your beautiful face,
And prayed you'd breath again.
I wasn't ready for you to go,
I couldn't admit that this was the end.

But then I realized that you were now in peace,
And not suffering anymore.
You were beginning the life of an Angel,
And your body would no longer be sore.

I held you close and squeezed you tight,
And tried to say goodbye.
I've lost my Nanny and my number one best friend,
All my heart could do is cry.

I slowly got up,
I wanted so much to stay.
I leaned over and gave you one more kiss,
It was so hard to walk away.

Nanny you are my entire world,
And I miss you so very much.
I wish I could feel your loveable cuddle,
And your soft and gentle touch.

But for now I have to wait,
Until we meet again.
You will always be in my heart and thoughts,
My dear Nanny and best friend.

Always and Forever,
Our hearts will always touch.
Always and Forever,
Your baby girl loves you so much.

Keep My Memory - Anon

Gemma,
Keep my memory with you,
For memories never die,
I will be with you,
When you look across the sky.

I will be there in the clouds,
In the birds that fill the air.
In the beauty of a fragrant rose,
You will find my memory there.

You will feel me in the tenderness,
Of a tiny baby’s touch.
You will hear me, if you listen,
In the twilights gentle hush.

When your hearts are heavy,
And you feel that you’re alone.
Just reach down deep inside of you,
For your heart is now, my home.

I will always be with you,
I will never go away,
For I will live on in your hearts,
Forever and a day.

Love Nanny xx

Bereavement

When you lose someone you love, the days go by so slowly, and the loss leaves a vast immeasurable hole in your life. But, gradually after years, sometimes, very slowly the hole begins to close.
It’s like darning a sock. Slowly you place the threads across the hole and weave them together, until eventually, you find the hole has gone.
There’s still a bloody great darn there, of course. The sock is never whole again, but at least your toes don’t stick out anymore.
Your life does function.
(Extract from the book “Thyme Out” by Katie Fforde)


Thinking of you - Gemma, love Joanne xx

Her journey's just begun xxx

Don't think of her as gone away,
Her journey's just begun.
Life holds so many facets,
This earth is only one.
Just think of her as resting
from the sorrows and the tears,
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years.
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away.
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she was loved so much.
