With Heart and Hands
With heart and hands I love you just as you loved me. Your kindness radiated your beauty which is as deep and unconquered as the sea. "Faith can move mountains" ~ And you have proved this true through the years. Love builds bridges, and you have built many in the midst o f my tears. I've learned a great deal from you and I take heed to what you say. Your words are full o f wisdom and I keep them in my memories everyday. Though there were struggles in your life you never let them show. Even in hardships you continued to smile as your faith continued to grow. All o f your prayers for us were heard and kept close within our hearts. Your body has left us, but your spirit remains. And through God we shall never part.
