We do Not Need A Special Day
Grief Poems Memorial Poems
We do not need a special day
to bring you to our minds -
The days we do not think of you
are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake
we know that you are gone -
And no one knows the heartache
as we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness
and secret tears still flow -
What it meant to lose you
no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you
your place no one can fill -
In life we loved you dearly
in death we love you still.
There will always to be a heartache
and often a silent tear -
But always a precious memory
of the days when you were here.
If tears would make a staircase
and heartaches make a lane -
We’d walk the path to heaven
and bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts
and there you will remain -
To walk with us throughout our lives
until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now
and nothing seems the same -
But as God calls us one by one
the chain will link again.
Tiny Angel
(Baby Boy Poem)
For a brief and fleeting moment
an Angel touched the ground -
With tiny wings and halo
and sweet, soft Angel sounds.
Blessing the lives of others
in beauty and in grace -
Those who saw the Angel knew
God had kissed his tiny face.
The Angel came for reasons
we may not understand -
A journey brief, with gifts so great
and guided by God’s hand.
So, rest now tiny Angel
your work on earth is through -
In the beauty of God’s perfect love
we saw His gift in you.
Heavens Nursery
(Loss Of Baby Child Poems)
In Heaven there
must surely be -
A special place
a nursery.
Where little spirits
not fully grown -
Go to live in their
Heavenly home.
The Angels must
attend with love -
Tiny spirits
on wings of doves.
The choir of Angels
sing lullabies -
To quieten down
their tiny cries.
The Father must
come by each day -
To cuddle and play
in a special way.
These tiny spirits
left earth too soon -
Little ones called home
from the womb.
These sparks of life
did not come to perish -
But came to the Father’s
love to cherish.
To grow and learn
in His own arms -
Safely away
from earthly harm.
The comforter was sent
to earth at once -
To the parents who lost
their little one.
Withe aching hearts
their arms are bare -
The question ‘why’
is always there.
Then all at once
in the midst of tears -
There comes a peace
that stills the fears.
The parents share
the Father’s own need -
To hold their tiny
spirit being.
They relinquish their own
desperate hold -
And release their baby
to the Father’s fold.
Then comes an Angel
to whisper the truth -
Of a nursery in Heaven
bearing rich fruit.
Of tiny spirits chosen
to worship the Father -
A place that couldn’t
be filled by another.
Called to be spared
from the struggles of earth -
Chosen to be one
of Heaven’s births.
So Father, whisper
words, of love from me -
To our unborn ‘life’
in your nursery.
Memories Build A Special Bridge
Sympathy Poems
Our memories build a special bridge
when loved ones have to part -
To help us feel we’re with them still
and soothe a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared
preserving ties that bind -
They build a special bridge of love
and bring us peace of mind.
- Emily Matthews
