Harvey's Place

SONG FOR DANI AND MARY

TWO KINDRED SPIRITS DRAWN TOGETHER,

A COMMON GOAL THEY’D SHARE FOREVER

TO PROVIDE A PEACEFUL AND LOVING PASSING,

TO THOSE WHO CHOOSE IT FOR THE ASKING

THEY BELIEVE THESE PRECIOUS SOULS DESERVE,

PEACE AND DIGNITY TO PRESERVE

THEIR GENTLE AND ANOINTED HANDS,

BRING PEACE AND COMFORT THROUGHOUT THE LANDS

WITH HEARTS OF GOLD THEY GO ABOUT,

EASING OUR FEARS, CONCERNS AND DOUBT

DAY IN, DAY OUT, THEY CHOOSE TO FACE,

WHAT SURELY TAKES ABUNDANT GRACE

WITH HUMBLE HEARTS THEY GUIDE US THROUGH,

AS TENDER AS THE MORNING DEW

A GENTLE NUDGE ACROSS THE BRIDGE,

FOR THOSE WHO CAN NO LONGER LIVE

WHEN THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE IS GONE,

THESE ANGELS WE WILL CALL UPON

AN ARMY OF ANGELS HELPS THEM, TOO,

FOR THEY ALONE CAN NO LONGER DO

A LOVING CHOICE THEY HELPED ME MAKE,

FOR MY PRECIOUS GIRL FIONA’S SAKE,

GRATEFUL HEARTS CANNOT BE MEASURED,

BUT FOREVER STORED, AND DEEPLY TREASURED.

CHERYL A. WYATT,

WITH LOVE AND THANKS TO

DR, DANI MCVETY, DR, MARY GARDNER,

AND THEIR ARMY OF ANGELS

IN LOVING MEMORY OF FIONA

I LONG TO TOUCH YOUR GOLDEN HEAD,

SLEEPING GENTLY ON MY BED

YOU ARE NO LONGER EARTHLY BOUND,

HEAVENLY PEACE YOU NOW HAVE FOUND

THERE IS A CROWN UPON YOUR HEAD,

FROM THIS EARTH YOU WERE LOVINGLY LeD

LOYAL COMPANION, FAITHFUL FRIEND,

YOU KNEW I’D LOVE YOU TO THE END

YOU WERE MY BEAUTIFUL LIONESS,

THE JOY YOU BROUGHT, I CAN’T TRULY EXPRESS,

TWELVE YEARS AGO YOU CAME TO PLAY

OUR SOULS WERE ENTWINED THAT FATEFUL DAY

WE KNEW YOU’D FOUND YOUR FOREVER HOME,

NEVER AGAIN ALONE TO ROAM

MY BEST FRIEND THROUGH THE HARDEST TIMES,

YOUR PRESENCE GAVE ME PEACE OF MIND

THE SMILE YOU WORE ON YOUR SWEET FACE,

FROM MY HEART CAN NEVER BE ERASED

YOU GIFTED ME WITH YOUR SWEET LOVE,

WHICH NOW RAINS DOWN FROM HEAVEN ABOVE

YOU ARE IN YOUR ETERNAL HOME,

CHEWING A CELESTIAL BONE

IT WAS MY TURN TO PAY YOU BACK,

THOUGH THE COURAGE I THOUGHT I’D SURELY LACK

I LOOKED UPON YOUR WEARY FACE,

AND KNEW YOU’D EARNED GOD’S ETERNAL GRACE

YOU WERE GUIDED BY A GENTLE HAND,

ACROSS THE BRIDGE TO ANOTHER LAND

MY FINAL GIFT, IT BROKE MY HEART,

FROM THERE YOU NEVER WILL DEPART

DARLING FIONA, PLEASE REMEMBER TO BE,

AT THE BRIDGE WAITING FOR ME

CHERYL A. WYATT

IN LOVING MEMORY OF

FIONA
