Christmas without you here with me,
can never possibly be the same.
But I carry an Angel within my heart;
one so precious, who has your name.
An Angel forever watching over me,
at Christmas time, and over the year.
Although you can't be here anymore,
inside my heart, you are so very near.
There is no special present for you,
wrapped up under my Christmas tree.
But I have a greater gift to give to you;
all the love you can still feel from me.
No, Christmas time without you here,
could not ever possibly be the same.
But, I have had the precious gift of you,
and the memories and love, will remain.
� Pamela Hall
All my love Sylvie

How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

Meeting the Easter Bunny
by Rowena Bennett, 1930
On Easter morn at early dawn
before the cocks were crowing
I met a bob-tail bunnykin
and asked where he was going.
"Tis in the house and out the house
a-tispy, tipsy-toeing,
Tis round the house and 'bout the house
a-lighlty I am going."
"But what is that of every hue
you carry in your basket?"
"Tis eggs of gold and eggs of blue;
I wonder that you ask it.
"Tis chocolate eggs and bonbon eggs
and eggs of red and gray,
For every child in every house
on bonny Easter day."
He perked his ears and winked his eye
and twitched his little nose;
He shook his tail -- what tail he had --
and stood up on his toes.
"I must be gone before the sun;
the east is growing gray;
Tis almost time for bells to chime." --
So he hippety-hopped away.
Love and Hugs~Sylvie xxxxx

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ My Angel ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
Another family get together an occation we celebrate
giving family members chocolate, feeling rather great,
when deep down all we are doing is thinking of you
not being at our side again and missing you its true.
though there are lots of colorful flowers we can take to your side
where we laid you to rest and became our Angel Guide,
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ My Angel ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
Maybe go to mass sunday and say a little prayer
for Easter is also religious when Jesus was taken up there,
we can also light a candle inside the church of God
drink his wine, smile at the priest, then give a slight nod.
for if their is anyone who knows, how we are feeling today
surely they will be in the church feeling the same way
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ My Angel ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
So i guess this coming Easter we can all take a moment to think
of that precious moment in time you became the missing Link,
For your my Special Angel and i want you to be aware
no matter what time of year, your memories i will always share
and though deep inside of me, I hold an aching heart
I know in my heart of hearts we wont always be apart
