~As I Stand Alone~

 

Here beneath this dark back night sky

I stand alone.

As I turn to look into the sky above me

To what appeared before my eyes

Was not as I thought

A nigh sky.

Now what was once a black night sky

Was the most unbelievable sight

As I could not find words

To describe for what

Was now before

My eyes.

As I wipe my eyes for a more clearer view

To find what was once a black night sky

Is lit before me with the brightest

Most beautiful light

One would

Ever see

Only for this brief moment here before me

I stand gazing as its’ beauty is now

Descending above me

Only leaving behind

the dark black

night sky

At this very moment only now could….

~I Wish~

 

We were kids again out in the yard

Catching fireflies beneath the

Star lit sky

~I Wish~

We were teens aging swimming at the creek,

You know the one where the rope

Swing hung high in that

Big tree.

~I Wish~

The time we spent together never faded

As the night will forever fade

Into day

Now, for I am still standing here alone

Only to be sheltered by this cold,

dark, black starless sky

 

As I listen to the most sweetest sound

To learn the soft sounds are voices

Of angels for in heaven

Far up above

As I can hear them calling upon me

For I can hear them saying

My name

Seems it’s my turn to leave this earthly home

As my home in heaven far above

Is now ready for

Me

Though I know I must now be going still

I only have this one

Last and final

~Wish~

I could tell you I know you always loved me

As I’ll for ever love you deep

Down in me

Soul

Even though over these few short lived years

As so many things often were said

Still yet so many not said

Nearly enough

Always remember this:

I Still Always Knew!!

So as the sun rises and morning wakes you to find

Me no longer will I ever be there

Please, I ask, do not I beg of you shed

Not even one small single

Tear!!

Now dry the tears for your baby blue eyes

As now you have no need for

Anymore worries

As I’m now never now longer alone standing

Beneath that dark black starless

Night sky

For now here in heaven above

Where there will forever be

Light

For now there is no need to wish

As here and now only

~I Hope~

You never wish things had been different

As there could have never been

Anything with the ability

To change my love
I dearly have

For you

See only can and will you forever be

My friend, My hero, but mostly

As there is nothing that could

Nor would take your

Place as my

Big Brother!

Now, as your baby sister, I ask of only you

My Big Brother

For here at this moment I want

For I need you to now

~Promise~

Every chance you get with my three beautiful babies

Take them down to the creek to swim

Where that ‘ol rope swing

High in that big

‘ol tree

~Promise~

To hold every moment close to your heart

For time flies though these moments

Will forever be cherished

It all too quickly fades

To only what now

Is just another

 Memory!

~Promise~

To take them out in the yard to catch fireflies

For give them our ‘ol jar

To use as we once did

Now the night has fallen upon this day

As here I ask of you,

This last and

Final

~Promise~

Take them out beneath that dark night sky

As I will come turn the dark

Into light

Where I’ll then be able to see

All three of their

beautiful faces

Now as my light above you begins to slowly desend

As I listen to their every big and small

Wishes and fears.

For I’ll be taking all wishes and fears, Please

Would you let them know how much momma

Loves them so

How I will always be here above to always

Watching them grow and how

I’ll always have for them

A big listening ear

So they can tell me all of their big and small

Wishes, hopes, dreams, and fears

As now my light has vanished before you

Only leaving the darkness here above you

Be sure and tell them mommy isn’t ever too far

As I’m here just up above as they needed

Mommy to help all the angels

Here in heaven above

For I ask all this of only you as I know you’ll be there

Watching as they continue to grow

As you’ll be my friend, hero, and big brother

Just as to them, I Know, you’ll forever

Be their Friend, Uncle, and

Forever you’ll be their

One and only

Hero!!
