My Mum is a survivor,
Or so I've heard it said.
But I can hear her crying at night,
When all others are in bed.
I watch her lay awake at night,
And go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I'm with her,
To help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach,
That never wash away...
I watch over my surviving mum,

Who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others...
A smile of disguise!
But through Heaven's door I see,
Tears flowing from her eyes.
My mum tries to cope with death,
To keep my memory alive.
But anyone who knows her knows,
It is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving mum,
Through Heaven's open door...
I try to tell her that angels,
Protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her...
Or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, go visit her...
And show her that you care.
For no matter what she says...
No matter what she feels,
My surviving mum has a broken heart,
That time won't ever heal.

Thinking of you amanda xx

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you.
And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be...what I know best,
A friend that's always there.

On angels wings

I don't know why the angels came,
And decided to take you away.
They must have needed someone very special,
When they carried you on their wings that day.
I wondered how they could take you from me,
And leave me here on my own.
Then I realised your love would live on inside me,
So in my heart, I would never be alone.

God must have had a greater purpose for you,
When He decided your time on earth was done.
He must have wanted you for a heavenly angel,
So you would be able to watch over everyone.

The angels told Him you were so very special,
And could make the world a greater place to live.
So with wings full of love, they took you to Heaven,
And now everyone can feel all the love you have to give

My heart still aches in sadness,
My silent tears still flow,
For what it meant to lose you megan
No one will ever know.

I did not see you close your eyes,
Or hear your last faint sigh,
I only heard that you were gone,
Too late to say goodbye.

It’s lonely here without you,
We miss you more each day,
For life is not the same to us,
Since you were called away.

Amanda May 4, 2007

Loving you is easy,
We do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of me went with you,
The day God called you home.

my dream

If I could have some fairy dust
To make my dreams come true
I`d take it with me in my sleep
So I could dream of you

I`d dream I were an angel
If only for one day
So I could be in Heaven
Just to spend the day with you

I`d tell you how I loved you so
And Missed you oh so much
And how just for a little while
You were mine but not to keep

I`d hold you oh so very close
But then I`d have to go
You see my little Angel
You were my gift but not to keep

I have to say night night now
Its time for me to go
But this feeling in my heart for you
Will never go to sleep

From one angel mummy to another xx

In the beginning you think you’re the only one
You don't see how you'll ever be able to carry on
Family and friends they just don't understand,
For they still hold their child's hand.

Sadly they can only relate,
If they have stood were you now stand.
Help and support is what you'll need,
To help you get up from bended knees

My angels had a plan
They asked their angel friends
If they could send their mummys
To hold my hand and help me to understand
Why things are not the way I'd planned

Never ending support is what I receive
From these wonderful angel mummys
Who mean so much to me
I don't know where I'd be if those sweet angel mummys
Had not reached out to comfort me

Thank you for helping me walk
The heartbreaking journey called grief

From Mummy Xx (Friend) April 30, 2007

thinking of you xx

When you've suffered the loss of a child,
It may be comforting to know,
There's a special place in Heaven,
Where all Gods Children go.
It is a happy, peaceful place,
Where no child ever cries,
They are innocently content to be,
A blessed Angel in your eyes.
The one and only need they have,
Is for you to understand,
That only very special Children,
Are place in Gods loving hand.
The Lord smiles down upon them,
While in his tender care,
As they patiently await the time,
That you will meet them there.
And though the time on Earth short lived,
Please set your sorrow free,
For one day in Gods Holy Land,
Together you will share Eternity.

Wanted to share this with you xx

A beautiful little angel showed up to Heaven's gates,
Confused and unknowing the plan that for him awaits.
Then another little angel walked up and took his hand,
Please don't be sad you left, you're in the Promised Land.
I'm glad to be here but I do not think I was to go,
Perhaps there was a mistake, for my mummy wanted me so.
The little greeting angel gave a sweet smile and said,
My mummy wanted me too, but to Heaven I was led.
You see, we dont get to say when on Earth , it's time to go.
He gave us life, love and joy and a mummy's womb to grow.
The Lord still needs new angels to guide them down on earth.
To watch over, comfort them, and help them see their worth.
Is there still a way that I can sleep in my mummy's bed?
The greeting angel grinned and said, that luxury you'll keep.
I visit my mummy nightly and softly sing her to sleep.
The little angel replied, then I think I'll like it here.
I'll visit my mummy nightly and weaken her pain and fears.
I love her and will keep her safe at night and in between,
Let her know with a sweet memory, that she is still with me
The greeting angel gave her new friend a big hug and said,
Until our mummy's meet us here, let's be best angel friends.
Okay, said the new angel, that sounds good to me.
The angels sat and played keeping their mummy's in sight,
Humming the song they will sing to their mummy's tonight...
