POEMS
I include this poem first because my brother sent it to me and I doubt he knows how much it helped me.
The Want of You
-author unknown

The want of you is like no other thing
It smiles my soul with sudden sickening.
It binds my being..
This want of you.
It flashes on me with the waking sun
It creeps upon me when the day is done.
It hammers at my heart the long night through-
This want of you.
It sighs within me with the misting skies
Oh, all the day within my heart it cries.
Old as your abscence, yet each moment new-
This want of you.
Mad with demand and aching with despair
It leaps within my heart and you are-where?
God has forgotten, or he never knew-
This want of you.
I love you my angel and miss you with all my heart.
My First Christmas in Heaven
-author unknown
[I have been told the author of this poem is Ben a 13 year old boy who died from a brain tumor. He wrote this for his mother.]

I see the countless christmas tree's around the world below, with tiny lights, like Heaven's stars reflecting on the snow, the sight it is so spectacular, please wipe away the tears, for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear, but the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas Choir up here.  I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring, for it is beyond description when the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart.  But I'm not so far away, we really aren't apart.  So be happy for me dear ones.  You know I hold you dear, and be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I send you each a special gift, from my Heavenly home above.  I send you the knowledge of my undyling love.  After all love is the gift, more precious than gold.  It was always important in the stories Jesus told.  Please love and keep each other, as my father said to do.  For I can't count the blessings or love He has for each of you.  So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away the tear.  Remember, I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

Dear Mommy,
Please don't be so sad,
I miss you so much too.
Its beautiful where I am.
But I worry a lot about you.
I sleep with angels watching me,
there's only love up here.
I'm never lonely or afraid,
"Cause God's so very near.
I  walk with Jesus everyday,
He's very kind and sweet.
Don't worry Mom; He holds my hand
When we cross a golden street.
I never cry or hurt myself,
I see you everyday..
I laugh and play and sing alot
and hear when you pray.
Please Mommy, Don't be mad at God
You see, He loves me too.
And even though you're not here with me, I'm really still with you.
If I could have a lifetime wish
A dream that would come true.
I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back,
I know because I have tried.
And neither will a million tears
I know because I have cried.
You left behind my broken heart
and happy memories too.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

Just for Today
Gail Fasolo
What will I do, just for today,
to try and make the pain go away?
Do I hold your picture and maybe cry?
Do I sit confused and wonder why?
Will I ever laugh and be happy again?
I think i will, but don't know when.
Will days get better as they say?
Will the emptiness ever go away?
Memories that my heart contains:
these are all that remain
of the one I held so dear
My child, you're no longer here.
I wait for the day
I'll see you again.
Pure love from the heart.
Oh-but when?
My faith never leaves me
I think I'll pray
for God's loving comfort
just for today.
God's Garden
God looked around His garden
and saw an empty space.
He looked down from Heaven ad saw your smiling face.
He put his arms around you
and whispered come to rest.
His garden must be beautiful,
He only picks the very best.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
a million times we cried.
And if our love could have saved you,
you never would have died.
