Tributes of Love

As I sit in Heaven

And watch you everyday, I try to let you know with signs I never went away. I hear you when you’re laughing, And watch you as you sleep I even place my arms around you to calm you as you weep. I see you wish the days away, Begging to have me home. So I try to send you signs So you know you are not alone. Don’t feel guilty that you have Life that was denied to me. Heaven is truly beautiful, Just you wait and see. So live your life, laughter again, Enjoy yourself, be free!

Then I know with every breath you take You’ll be taking one for me.

In Loving Memory of Shannon

Oh, Shannon, my sister, so dear, Your presence, now absent, brings tears.

But in my heart, you’ll forever stay, Guiding me through each passing day.

Your laughter, a melody in the air, Your love, a warmth beyond compare. Memories we shared, etched in my soul, A bond unbreakable, making me whole.

I miss your smile, your gentle touch, The way you loved, oh, so much.

Though you’re gone, your spirit remains, A beacon of light that forever sustains.

In this moment of sorrow and pain, I find solace in knowing we’ll meet again.

In a place where love knows no end, Where broken hearts finally mend.

So, rest in peace, my dear sister, In the arms of eternity, forever.

Until we reunite, beyond the veil, I’ll carry your love, a timeless tale.

This poem is a tribute to your life,

A sister, a friend, a light so bright. In our hearts, your memory will remain, Until we meet again, beyond the pain.
