There was little time to say goodbye
Little time to say
The things I felt within my heart
Not dreaming of the day
That I would be without you
That you would soon be gone
There was no clue, no little sign
That there was something wrong
I was the only child you had
But you were Dad by heart
To all my childhood friends and those
Whose lives you were a part
If I could climb to heaven
I’d build the stairs with stars
And you and I and Mom would have
That special kiss of ours
You were a friend to all you knew
And we all miss you so
I hear your voice upon the gentle
Summer breeze that blows
I know you’re there behind the clouds
Sitting on a star
I know that God took you to Him
For everything you are
My heart is still in pieces
My life forever changed
I never knew that anything
Could cause such crushing pain
If time is the great healer
I don’t have time to heal
For it would take forever
I still don’t believe it’s real
I thank the Lord both day and night
We had the time we had
You were my hero and my friend
But most of all, my Dad

In Memory of My Beloved
Mother
August 30, 1928 to June 16,
2007
The love between a mother
and her daughter is a bond that even death cannot break. You were my heart!
It took a little time to
write they way I’ve felt so long
I wanted all the words
just right and never come out wrong.
You carried me below your
heart before I first breathed air
And as I grew you
nurtured me, and taught me now to share.
You always said, “You are
my heart.”
I was so hard to part
I watched you slowly fade
away
The day My Daddy passed
away
I know a part of you went
too
When Daddy died too soon
I’d give the stars in
heaven
To have brought him home
for you
I miss you more each
passing day
Though all the “firsts”
are done
It really doesn’t make it
better
You were my moon and sun
So until we meet again
some time
Rest peacefully my love
Listen to the Angel songs
And learn to sing along.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I will love you both until the end of time.
I may not be able to see you,
But you are always alive in my heart.
Your Daughter
Wendy
