For Paul's family

When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
Its a hug sent from heaven
From a loved one way up high

If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose

If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
Its a hug sent from heaven
From someone up above

If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebirds chirping song
Its music sent from heaven
To cheer you all day long

If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
Its hugs sent from heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace

So keep the joy in your heart
If your lonley my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from heaven
Abroken hears will mend

The Finest

The Finest
by Nordahl Grieg

Death can be bright as a beacon,
revealing to everyone's eye
each life as it flares and sputters -
it is the finest who die.

The strong and the daring of spirit,
who dreamed and desired the most;
they said their goodbyes, and they went off
to fight, from a distant friend's coast.

They calmly went off to their duty,
entrusting the world to the rest:
The diligent, patient survivors -
those are the second best.

The finest are murdered in prison,
swept off by bullets and sea.
The finest will not be our future;
they never expected to be.

We honor them with resignation,
remember their names in despair;
But we are betraying the finest
with each bitter, sorrowfull tear.

Don't grieve them to death! Be inspired!
Their courage has set them apart.
Know that the blood of the fallen
flows through each valiant heart.

Those who have known them are richer.
Their legacy will never end.
They live on as 'Mother' and 'Father',
As 'Comrade-in-Arms', and as 'Friend'.

Their sacrifice bought us a future.
Their children will buy it again.
And we shall write on their headstones:
'The finest will always remain.'

Always

As the sun starts to rise,
I'm with you
When you hear a bird sing,
I'm there
For each raindrop that falls,
think of me
And the love that we'll
always share

In the rush of the wind
feel my touch
In the quiet of night
hear my voice
If you start to stumble
take my hand
And know that it was
my choice

When tears start to fall feel
my comfort
If you feel low share
my pride
Don't ever think that you've
lost me
For I will always be there
by your side

One of the best

Simply one of the best , will always be remembered and never forgot. A good soldier and a great guy, our thoughts are with those who he was so needlessly taken from.
Love Ray & Kerry
