So oft' found in her words this comfort of soul, where hope does reside. Constant is her courage lying within.......her heart of gold. An example to all, accentuated only by her grace of faith and devotion. A hand offered in friendship and a shoulder leaned upon in tears, while the celebration of life continues evermore. In her sharing, is her caring.... In her spirit, a wealth of giving. Many times an inspire and a treasure to behold. In receiving, comes the giving........ Her hand...........has held ours....... and may she always know........... that ours, is here................to hold I know that you can 'read' me but can you 'hear' "me"?

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, Lyra is a very special friend with an angelic heart to everyone, and I know this because I also talk with her on the telephone and she is in my thoughts and prayers and I send many angel hugs to her these holidays! (sigh) You are a true angel, sweet friend, God Bless you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!

It never hurts to hold your hand out twice so up to the top with this for Lyra. You are so right Donna, she is the first there to lend a smile and a hand, now she needs to know she has ours too. Lovely poem. |

Donna, Can't believe I missed this. Thank you Mysteria. And indeed a loving and tender poem of support and encouragement. Bless you dear girl. Lyra, Love to you and peace. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
