I Am With You
I stood beside your bed last night,
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying,
quietly in your sleep.
I touched you softly
as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you,
I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour coffee,
You were thinking of how much you
longed to be with me.
I was with you at the store today,
Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels,
I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today,
You tend it with such care.
I want to reassure you,
that I'm not really there.
I walked with you to the house,
as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my hand on you,
I smiled and said "it's me."
You looked so very tired,
and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know,
that I was standing there.
It's possible for me to be
so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty,
"I never went away."
You sat there very quietly, then
smiled, I think you knew ...
In the stillness of that evening,
I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch
you yawning and say
"goodnight, God bless,
I'll see you in the morning."
And when the time is right for you
to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and
we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to
show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out
then come home to be with me.

Best
Friends
It was always a special feeling,
Having a sister like you.
You made each day unique,
With the things you would say and do.
You made me laugh, and
Sometimes you would make me cry.
But. whenever I am feeling down,
You keep me reaching for the sky.
And whenever I have something
That I can't wait to share,
You're the one I think of because
I know you will always be there
shining for me in heaven,
until I get there.
And so my twin sister, this poem's for
you,
Not that words could ever show,
What a very special friend you are:
You're more special than you know.
I love you.
This angel touched your hearts
For only just a while
To teach you what it means to love
And show you how to smile
She could not stay for long
For God soon would call her home
But she left behind these memories
To carry with you when you roam
She taught you though her courage
And the strength it took to live
And to see her eyes and smile
Oh, what you wouldn't give
Now your tears of sorrow fall
But through each tear there is a light
For this end is not goodbye
Its only time till you'll unite
For one day the skies will open
And God's hands, they will unfold
And your precious child will await
For your arms to hold
So till then, hold on
Keep her "legend" in your hearts
And know the journey isn't done
It's only just the start...
