Birthday Remembrance
Thinking of you on your birthday Joseph
But that is nothing new
For no day dawns and no day ends
Without a thought of you.
We cannot send a birthday card,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSEPH

**ღ**ღ**ღ**ღ**ღ**ღ*THOSE WE LOVE **ღ**ღ**ღ**ღ
Always Near as You Walk
And I am no longer with you
Let no tears fall or sorrow prevail
When you see your reflection shimmer in the water
Smile and know that I see your smile
When you feel the cool grass beneath your feet
And the sun’s warmth upon your back
Know that I feel it also
When you hear the leaves rustling in the wind
Know it is my voice softly whispering to you
When you see a butterfly dancing among flowers
Know that I am dancing also
When you gently touch a puppy’s soft fur
Know that I too feel your touch
When the wind swirls across your skin
Know that it is I who caresses you
When you love another
Know that I too feel your love
These words are truth, my love
Have faith, my love
As long as beauty lives upon the earth and in the stars
And love lives in every beat of every heart
So then do I
So then do we all.
BIG HUGS JOSEPH

2 years
It's now 2 years ago since that awful day.
When Angels held his hand and took him far away.
But we'll never forget you Joseph,you'll always be our light.
Our little ray of sunshine forever burning bright.
Love you so much son xxx
X From me to you X R.I.P Sweet Angel Up Above X
Do you really belive it?
Can it really be true?
How can you belive that! Life has ended with death???
It simply is not true.
So we cannot be together like we used to.
Does that mean i am gone?
Now i dance on the moon.
I play on the stars.
I cool your face with gentle wind.
While watching you from afar.
For a love and bond.
Like our's is so very strong.
It will forever carry on and on xxx
KEEPING WATCH
Every night I think of you and say a little prayer,
then last night there you stood and gave me quite a scare.
Before hiding under the covers in fright,
I saw your face and a brilliant light.
You looked just the same as you used to do,
I couldn't believe it was really you.
I've heard you calling my name before
but I'm happier now I've seen you once more.
My heart is lighter and more peaceful now,
knowing that you're around somehow.
My little ray of sunshine is still burning bright,
keeping watch over his Mum at night.
Love you so much son
xxxx
Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Joseph"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?
Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.
Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.
The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.
No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Son of yours.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY"
A Birthday Wish
I have one wish that I'd love to come true.
To spend this special day with you.
Just to see your face once more.
Smiling and happy as it was before.
Fifteen today you would have been
but I cannot see you beyond thirteen.
So"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to you I know you can hear.
Though I can't see you I feel you are near.
Forever in my heart,forever in my mind.
You were a treasure,one of a kind.
I know that one day I will see you again.
And I'll treasure the memories I have until then.
LOVE & MISS YOU
JOSEPH

Native American Prayer
I give you this one thought to keep--
I am with you still--I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone--
I am with you still--in each new dawn.

My Christmas Tree
I’ve just put up my Christmas tree,My Christmas Tree
Over my rainbow in the sky.
I’ve got hundreds of presents,
So, why do you sit there and cry?
The lights are shining brightly,
My Angel friends are here,
This is going to be the best,
And I love it, don’t you fear.
The tables are set already,
It will be the biggest banquet Christmas Day,
And all my Angel friends and me,
Will be looking down your way.
So when you light your candles,
Just look up to the sky,
For it will brightly shine with ours,
So be happy, please don’t cry.
I can’t wait for Christmas,
Over my rainbow in the sky,
Let’s all enjoy it together,
Insteadof the “ifs” and “why’s”
Be happy on this Christmas Murn,
I will visit that’s for sure,
And then I shall return to my party,
Behind that rainbows door.
