Our MAMA & their MAMAW….

"A mothers love is something that no one can explain. It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain.

It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may, for nothing can destroy it or take that love away.

It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking. And it never falls or falters even though the heart is breaking.

It believes beyond believing when the world around condemns, and it grows with all the beauty of the rarest and brightest gems

It is far beyond defining. It defies all explanation. And it still remains a secret like the mysteries of creation

A many splendored miracle man cannot understand

And another wonderous evidence of God's tender guiding hands."

 

-She made it home-

 

"When I die

Give what's left of me away

To children

And old men that wait to die.

 

And if you need to cry,

Cry for your brother

Walking the street beside you.

And when you need me,

Put your arms

Around anyone

And give them

What you need to give me.

 

I want to leave you something,

Something better

Than words

Or sounds.

 

Look for me

In the people I've known

Or loved,

And if you cannot give me away,

At least let me live on in your eyes

And not your mind.

 

You can love me most

By letting

Hands touch hands,

By letting bodies touch bodies,

And by letting go

Of children

That need to be free.

 

Love doesn't die,

People do,

So when all that's left of me

Is love

Give me away."

"When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see

If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled of tears for me

I wish you wouldn't cry the way you did today

While thinking of the many things we did not get to say

I know how much you love me as much as I love you

Each time that you think of me I know you will miss me too

When tomorrow starts without me please try to understand

That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand

The angel said my place was ready in heaven far above

And that I would have to leave behind all those I dearly love

But when I walked through heaven's gates I felt so much at home

When GOD looked down and smiled at me from his golden throne

He said, This is eternity and all I promised you,

today for life on earth is done But here it starts a new,

I promise no tomorrow

For today will always last and since each day's the exact same way

There is no longing for the past

So When Tomorrow starts without me

Do not think we are apart

For every time you think of me

Remember I'm forever in your heart"
