Tuesday's Trust - "A Vibrant Presence: A Present For All"





And your light will always shine,
and your name will still be spoken,
For you and time stand still.
Your heart's a part of mine, 
with a love that can't be broken.
Beyond the shadows that I know,
who you are will always glow.
Like a star you guide me on.

Your Light Will Always Shine

Tuesday's Trust

"A Vibrant Presence: 

A Present For All"





I do not understand

the fear parents have

that their child

will not be remembered…


In my mind

how could she not?

She was so vital

She is so vital

for she still is…







A life cannot be forgotten

She has imprinted

upon hearts


Look at my own

I will never be the same

after her





"A vibrant presence: A present for all."
~spinningwrites



Neither will anyone else

who knew her

I know that

I trust that

I rest in that

There is no doubt

She is

and that is enough



If she is so vital in my heart

how can she not be

in the hearts of others…

others who really know her

~in this mother's mind~

they are of all people 

truly blessed


for they got to know

my lively baby

who filled life

with zest 

always



and she loves us

always



And how powerful

that love is



and will be



always

Friday's Faith - The Prints You Left Behind...





Friday's Faith


The Prints You Left Behind...





Baby, what folks don't know

Is you left your prints on us

Before you ever did go,

Prints that reach deeper than skin,

Down into the heart, and down into the soul.

Your love, Your laughter burrows in,

Your gentle spirit, the wisdom of a friend,

Your kindness buried deep, now leaves a gaping hole.

Our hearts are split wide open

Now that you are gone...

And yet the Sprit's spoken ~

You're not gone; you're just not home!

We must learn new ways to commune

Just like the Son did with His Father

To keep their hearts in tune,

To let their love still flow like water.


Thank you that you touched me in such a deep way.

May we practice communing one with another

That our hearts may flow together in a new way

Until we're joined together again on that Final Day

When God reunites a precious daughter with her mother.


Until that time, your prints reach so deep;

My love for you just grows and grows, tall as the mountain steep.

Your spirit reaches in, touches my body, soul, spirit, and mind,

Picking up where we left off, with the prints you left behind...
