The Gallery - Inspirational Women

TheGallery


God took you quick because you were ready
You'd learned all there was to know

Once you'd spent some time with all whom you loved
He knew it was time to go
*
Your time on Earth, it was always precious
Lived life with a vigour that's rare

Your smile's everlasting, your memory alive
Our feelings we've all laid bare
*
We'll all soon be going to an event that you loved
A conference you would not have missed

But don't you worry you won't be forgotten
Your name's already on the list
*
You won't have a name badge nor a goody bag
We won't see you for real on the day

But thanks to computers the ones that you loved
Your image will come alive that way
*
So you see, you'll still be there, in a way
that's as real as the memories that we all share

We'll never forget you or what you taught us
Because we all still care
*
So you'll always be with us, inspired we remain
For you were a shining light

When an angel lives upon this earth
The star that twinkles is BRIGHT!

    1. She was a very special lady, who was light years ahead of the rest of us, in knowing what's important in life.
      An old soul she was I'd say.

  9. This is the lady I hope my MM has found in the sky. This is the lady I turned to so many times for help with my children. We had journeyed so many similar paths. This was the lady who insisted I got help from Home Start. She knew what I needed and she helped me to get it. This is a lady full of love and I hope that this beautiful MM has found my MM up in the sky x

  14. Until the last ten months I never appreciated, as an "oldie", the power of the social media. It has become a massive comfort, not only to Nick, but the entire family and I send our grateful thanks to you all. Dick (Nick's dad).

  15. An absolutely beautiful tribute. I came into the blogging world as Kerry left ours - she left behind a wonderful legacy and so many amazing memories. I wish I could have met her but I know for sure she will be there in spirit next weekend. An honour to have this poem linked up to Prose for Thought xx
