As you sleep you have a lot of dreams
Are they real or fantasy?
What’s the meaning of what you see
Feel
   Love
      And
        Fear
Sometimes you don’t understand what has begun
But in that moment gives you something to hold on to so tight

People appear, who have passed on, to say hi and miss you so
Animals represent what’s happening in your life
Everything so realistic as it shines so bright

Take a step into your dreams and don’t be scared
Dream catchers will filter out the evil within yourself

Look for the special message today
From the dreams you had as you slept the night away

My heart drops deep down in my stomach
I hear the news and I collapse
The damage is done and there's no turning back
But now our lives are on the right track
We embark on a new journey and restart our lives
All things so precious went right before our eyes
We build a new staircase and walk to the top
We all have eachother so nothing much was lost.

Softly chirping
       Light rain falling
Calling out for love
       Blissful sunrise
Swirling clouds
        Essence of peacefulness
Calming feelings
        Giving thanks
For all you have
         Being free
Singing aloud
        Take it all in
Breath in life
       Not looking back
Don’t think twice
      Recharge yourself
Rise to the top
      Not giving up
Never to stop
     Take a deep breath
Walk ahead
      To a better you
Revealing your thoughts
           When your dreams come true

Rip off my skin
     Break through my bones
            Grab ahold of my heart
Feel the beating
           Dripping blood
Look for the black thread
           That mended my heart
Showing my scars
          Revealing my story
                Never afraid to make a new start
Your story starts deep within your soul
Don’t hide it, let the world know the real you, in full

Tonight as many of us celebrate the Christmas magic
May we remember all that (can’t) celebrate
As they are.....
        Alone
          Sick
             Homeless
                   Dying
                       In Heaven
                            Fighting Overseas

As we all enjoy our time together with family and friends
      Let us bow our heads
          Take a moment of silence
               Pray for all those who won’t be celebrating this Christmas Day...

We said our final
Goodbye to you today
It was so hard just to walk away
We will
Never forget you and your smile
Even though we're not together, it's only for a little while.

You took your final breath last night
You have gained your wings
Now take flight
You have left a handprint on all our hearts
You will always be with us even though you had to depart
When the sun shines down on all of us
We will know it’s your smile upon all of us
We will never forget you and all you accomplish
Rest In Peace sweet little one
We hope you bring heaven a whole lot of fun...

Be the light
In someone’s dark path

Be the smile
That someone hasn’t seen

Be the support
For someone who doesn’t have it

Be the shoulder
For someone to cry on

Be the love
For someone who isn’t loved

Be the voice
For someone who can’t be heard

Be the friend
For someone who doesn’t have one

Be the strength
For someone who is scared

Be the way
For someone who is lost

Be the fight
When someone feels weak

Be the magic
When someone doesn’t believe

Be their friend, support, love....
                         The possibilities are endless

I release this red balloon to you
Fly high in the sky and reach you soon
A letter attached to share with you
How much I miss you hope you do too
A red balloon flies high in the sky
I still often just wonder why
Why you are gone and not here with me
But then I think, it was just meant to be
You lived your life and made me who I am today
I will always treasure that each and everyday
It never is easy to say goodbye
But I know your flying high up there in the sky

Of life events
Starts with a slow ride of growing up inside of your mother
As it reaches the end of your warm and cozy environment safe inside
The ****** reaches the top of the hill
Racing into the world at full speed as the coaster plunged down the big drop
You are now thrown into this crazy world
Filled with twists
      Turns
Highs
       Lows
Slow and steady
        Fast and furious
Your journey may start off wild and crazy
                                 Or
Could be calming and take an unexpected turn

Sometimes the track of the ride will just stop and need to be evacuated
                     Or
Can just break down while your waiting in line
This represents all who have had miscarriages
                  Or
Premature pregnancy, still born, that ended too soon

You may try again later in life to restart the ride
Hopefully to enjoy the journey of so many others did waiting in line in front of you

Those who made it through the roller coaster of life
Will enjoy the ride of a lifetime
Buckled and strapped into your wild and crazy ride that we call
                LIFE

I got 12” yesterday....








Of snow.......

Skipping rocks down the river of life
Making ripples in the water and foot prints in the sand
Music is blaring as we dance to our jam
We don't care who's watching as we act crazy together
As we hold hands for many years forever and ever...

Pain
Is
Temporary

Love
Is
Always

I know your here, I know your around
I sense your presence from the sky to the ground
Many songs play at random times I still can't believe how much time has gone by
I still reflect on the last week of your life
Holding your hand and saying goodbye
I know it's not goodbye, it's see you again
It's a new beginning to this stories end
We will all see you again when our journeys will end
Please wait for us dad, on that bridge on the bend.

A little boy
In so much pain
Fill him with medicine
And fluid
Yet the pain won’t go away

His body shakes
And trembles
From all the fluids being pumped
Inside of him

Being poked and prodded
With needles and such
Wishing I could take away his pain
Being a mother, I’m hurting for him so much

There’s nothing I can do
But sit back and watch
Hoping my boy will come around at once

I’m not complaining for wanting pity from you
This is my son, it’s what I have to do
I just want support and love from all
To help me through these scary falls

As a parent
You want to protect your child
I’m being strong for him to encourage my boy
Even if it’s been very wild

God please watch over him
Help us get through this crazy
Wild
Scary
Time in our lives
Little Ethan... your a true fighter.

Empty bellies
Freezing limbs
Sleeping on the sidewalks
Or park bench
No blankets or pillow to keep you warm
A cardboard box as your shelter
Feeling safe is not an option
Fear for your life on the
DARK
C
  O
     L
        D
streets alone
No one to protect you or feel at home

This is my life
I’m not ashamed to say
But could you stop and just pray
Pray for my safety and that I will find shelter and food
But most of all, for me, to just be happy and good...

Materialistic
   Tangible
      Expensive
        Touchable
           Physical
             Monetary
                Solid
              Things...

Why give that type of gift
When a

  Hug
     Smile
         Kiss
            Laughter
               Happiness
                   And
                         Love
            Are Better and Free...

I need a break
To get away
Somewhere warm
Maybe to stay
Even for a week
To relax and play
This body is tired
Of working my life away
