Memories of people and places
Of times past, loss and pain
People and times remembered
That can never be again

Like clouds rolling over the hills
Rushing ,picking up pace
Like lashing rain and thunder claps
My thoughts and memories race

Inside I cry, why? why?
While on my face a smile
Then your memory comes to comfort me
And sit with me a while

Memories can comfort
And soothe away the pain
Memories of you
To make me smile again

You were always there
For all of my life
You should be here now

But God had other ideas
So you went with Him
And you left us behind

I hope you are at peace
And happy
And free from pain and fear

Can you see us
From where you are
Among the stars?

I miss you my lovely Mum
Now as much as then
I'll see you in my dreams

Hold on, hold on
It could all be gone
With a sweep of the hand of tme
What was yours , what was mine

Hold on, hold on
To those you hold dear
Show love ,show kindness
Keep them near

For this life is too short
And too soon it is gone
This life this love
So hold on, hold on

Your love is unconditional
You love me just because
There is no price to pay

Your love is unconditional
As you cuddle up to me
Because you want to

Your love is  unconditional
As you wrap your arms around me
And hug me tight
  
Our love is unconditional
For one another
Only love and joy

Slowly , slowly the sun awakens
Lighting the soft,dark ,velvet night
Blowing out the stars like candles
Dimming the light of the silver moon

Gently waking the birds from their slumber
To sing their joyful morning song
Shedding its light high over the treetops
Beckoning to the flowers below

Shining on the dew laden grass
Glistening like a carpet of diamonds
Like millions of prisms catching a rainbow
Such beauty to behold

Spreading its light , spreading its warmth
Turning the sky to azure blue
Casting its rays to light the day
It's morning's work is done

Slowly , slowly the sun dips down
Heralding  the end of another day
Gently stroking all life to sleep
Beckoning the soft, dark, velvet night
