Precious Photo Memories
The Dash
I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of his friend
He referred to the dates on this tombstone
from the beginning ... to the end.
He noted that first came the date of his birth
and spoke the following dates with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.
For the dash represents all the time
that they spent alive on earth
and now only those who loved them
know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own;
the cars ... the houses ... the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
and how we spend our dash.
God didnt promise days without pain,
laughter without sorrow, sun without rain,
but He did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
by Linda Ellis
My Three Sons
Cry for me, shed some tears
Remember all those wonderful years.
Stand up for me and pray for me
that I will always be with you.
Because I loved you.
When it rains, its the tears
I shedded through the years.
When the wind blows
its me touching your face.
When the sun comes up its me saying,
Get up it is a new day!
When the moon shines bright at night
its me smiling saying, It will be all right.
When day comes to an end it is
God saying, Rest, pray, tomorrow is another day.
Love,
Mama
