A Mother’s love is binding
Unrelenting in its power
The glow from it so blinding
Beyond her final hour

Even after a Mother’s gone
Her love will see you through
A love to help you carry on
Because that’s what Mother’s do

When I lost my Daughter I lost a Friend
We were very close you know
If only I could see her again
Then I could tell her so

I loved her more than I even knew
Our bond was beyond imagination
Memories strengthened as she grew
From her birth to her graduation

A parent should go before their child
I pray that my heart will mend
And have faith I will be reconciled
With my Daughter and my Friend

There can be no greater loss
Than that of a child

No pain ever imagined
Can hurt so deep

So innocent and pure
Such dreams unfulfilled

They are a part of you
Now part of you has faded

You sustain life in their memory
But the emptiness engulfs you

Still you know in your heart
You must live life for them

Although you’ve passed from this world
And left my world in sorrow
I know that I must go on
And face this life tomorrow

Just when I think I’m content
And well upon my way
To dealing with your loss
Along comes your birthday

Memories of birthdays past
Hold my heart at bay
I will find solace once again
Until your next birthday

I miss you so much Grandma
I often think of you
The bond that we shared
Special and true

You were so kind and gentle
You always believed in me
Your faith in me unending
Like a Grandma can be

I only have memories now
Of years spent together
And they must sustain me
And fill my heart forever

My grandpa has been gone
For a dozen years or more
But loving memories linger on
I loved him that’s for sure

His voice hearty and loud
His stories warm and true
He always made me proud
With little things he’d do

He was a special guy
He made sure I knew
With each tear I cry
I know he loved me too

A Grandpa is like a diamond
Many years form this treasure
Just like wine is better with age
This love we cannot measure

A Grandpa provides stories
A wisdom grown in living
A Grandpa does not judge
But finds solace in giving

A Grandpa is special
We hate to see them go
But we cherish their memory
And we love them so

Not just a father was he
But a daddy and a friend
Even when he punished me
The purpose had an end

He traded away his youth
Worked hard day and night
Dedication revealing truth
To raise his children right

One of the last of a generation
Of fathers tough and true
Earned our respect and admiration
Like good role models do

His time on earth has ended
And although I’m empty and sad
Wounds are somehow mended
With loving memories of my dad

I remember that day so well
It is cemented in my mind
I still hear that church bell
It sends shivers up my spine

As I stood there full of sorrow
Prepared to bid you farewell
Memories of strength I would borrow
I know you taught me well

As they placed you in the ground
My tears I could not deny
They fell to earth without a sound
The day I said goodbye
