❁ The Tapestry of Life ❁
(Author Unknown)

"Tis said that old Time is a shuttle,
Swift weaving the web of our days;
In and out fly fast speeding moments
Thro' the warp and the wool of earth's maze.
***************************************
At times all the colors seem sombre,
Again there are dashes of bright;
Anon all life's threads knot and tangle,
And only defects meet our sight,
***************************************
Full often we stand and in wonder
We gaze at the unveiling loom,
Which hides the design of the fabric
Until we have reached the dark tomb.
***************************************
Only this do we know that the groundwork,
Thro' which the bright colors are twined,
Is woven of charity's fibers,
Which serve the threads closely to bind.
***************************************
And when the last thread has been broken,
And the loom is forever at rest,
We shall see that our life's great Designer,
Knew what for His children was best.

♥ REMEMBERING ♥ (Author Unknown) ♥

♥ There will come a day
♥ when your tears of sorrow
♥ will softly flow into tears of remembrance...
♥ and your heart will begin to heal itself...
♥ and grieving will be interrupted by episodes of joy...
♥ and you will hear the whisper of hope.
♥ There will come a day
♥ when you will welcome the tears of remembrance...
♥ as a sunshower of the soul...
♥ a turning of the tide...
♥ a promise of peace.
♥ There will come a day when you will...
♥ risk loving...
♥ go on believing...
♥ and treasure the tears of remembering.

High Flight.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings.
Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of; wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air;
Up, up the long delirious burning blue
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace,
Where never lark nor even eagle flew;
And while, with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high, un-trespassed sanctity of space
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

(by John Gillespie McGee)

☆•☆ A MESSAGE FROM YOUR ANGEL ☆•☆

♥ I'd Rather See You Smiling ♥
(� Alan Pemberton)

You must not think that I have gone
Please don't grieve or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine
Death is an exciting key
Which opens many doors
It leads us into other worlds
Quite similar to yours
Life is not an accident
Death is not the end
God designed a mystery
Life and death do blend
So do not think that I have gone
Please don't brood or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine


☆•☆ A TENDER REPLY ☆•☆

♥ I Promise ♥
(Author Unknown)

I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
I promise I will remember
How to live and how to play.

I promise that I'll dry my tears
When the heartache goes away.
I promise that it won't take years
But I need another day.

I promise that I'll live my life
As you would want me to.
I promise when I'm facing strife
I'll face it straight and true.

I promise I will endeavour
To do the best I can each day.
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
