Holidays in Heaven

The Holiday Season is just not the same,

A smile is missing when saying one name.

For parents who’ve lost a daughter or son,

Nothing can bring back the delightful fun,

Of watching them talk, laugh, or just run.

The memories are all that we do have now,

We do go on…..only God knows how.

A New Year comes as midnight arrives,

Our Angels still a big part of our lives.

If only we could trade the presents we receive,

For one more day with those whom we grieve!

But nothing can bring back our beloved child,

The one that laughed, cried, and often smiled.

They are together in a much better place,

Watching us cry…..touching our face!

Although we miss them on Holidays to share,

Be assured their loving presence fills the air,

At home, in church, at New York’s Times Square!

So celebrating the Holidays are now hard to do,

But always remember they are thinking of you too,

Wishing you happiness and showing their love,

Not on this Earth, but from Heaven above!
