Thankful

All the amazing people in my life
Influence me at different times.
Sometimes in subtle flowing motion
Picking me up when I fall too.

Slightly effecting each others being
By our presence in each others lives.
Influencing daily choices by conversations had.

Each day's a new day
A story yet to unfold
Another way of sharing love
To the ones we treasure most.

I can't imagine life
If not for my wonderful friends, family and acquaintances.
For without them my life wouldn't be the same.

It would be a life not lived
With cherished memories not made
Without love shared with my nearest and dearest.
An experience not yet had.

I'd like to thank the special people in my life
For sharing with me yours.
The fun times and joy, the heart ache and pain
All of which is mine and yours.

I'm thankful for each and everyone of you
Every single day
And I look forward to our next experience
Here's to more memories made.

Down To Rest

Life is short, too short sometimes.
I'm sure you lived your life well.
Unfortunately your life has been taken away.
So young, down to rest you lay.

Your life was a privilege we've all been blessed with.
You'll never know how you've touched our hearts.

It must've been hard knowing all this time.
You were destined to live such a short life.

May the memories live on and the pain subside.
You'll always be with me in my thoughts as a child.
When we were close and happy, not a care in the world.
In the countryside we played until the sunset low.

Now you're in the sky shinning down bright.
Twinkling like a star on our dark nights.
Keeping an eye out if anything goes down.
We know you are watching till we meet again.

Love you my Cuz!!!
