We thought of you with love today but that is nothing new We thought about you yesterday and days before that too, We think of you in silence We often speak your name All We have are memories and your picture in a frame Your memory is our keepsake with which We’ll never part God has you in His keeping We have you in our heart. No farewell words were spoken, No time to say goodbye, You were gone before we knew it, And only God knows why.________________ If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.______________ God grant us the Serenity To accept the things We cannot change, Courage to change the things We can, And the Wisdom to know the difference.__________________ Funeral Poems I'm Still Here Friend, please don't mourn for me I'm still here, though you don't see. I'm right by your side each night and day And within your heart I long to stay. My body is gone but I'm always near. I'm everything you feel, see or hear. My spirit is free, but I'll never depart As long as you keep me alive in your heart. I'll never wander out of your sight- I'm the brightest star on a summer night. I'll never be beyond your reach- I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach. I'm the colourful leaves when Autumn's around And the pure white snow that blankets the ground. I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond, The clear cool water in a quiet pond. I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring, The first warm raindrop that April will bring. I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine, And you'll see that the face in the moon is mine. When you start thinking there's no one to love you, You can talk to me through the Lord above you. I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees, And you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze. I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep And the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep. I'm the smile you see on a baby's face. Just look for me, friend, I'm every place!
