Michael Adam Greaves
born 2nd may 1998
died 10th Feb 1999
aged 9 months
from bury lancs
Michael now as twin brothers Josh and Jamie who's 7 years old
Michael died of hypo-plastic left heart syndrome
Michael was always a happy baby who had a smile for everybody he met,
he loved his chocolate buttons and packets of skips and watching the Telly Tubbies Lala being his
favorite.
Michael was a little ray of sunshine and we love and miss him
i know he would love his brothers as much as they love his memory, and always tell people they have
a big brother who lives in heaven with Jesus and the angels.
now resting in gods arms
love you always sunshine Mummy Josh & Jamie xxx
♥ღ♥ A Last Goodbye ♥ღ♥
Though happily each year began
I had to die whilst very young
It is so long since our last touch
And I miss your presence there so much
Of many things I needed to learn
So to this place God made me turn
Yet with so many things to do
I have taken this moment to speak to you
The life that was, was not to be mine
Yet within this world it has worked out fine
Where I am now I have found new friends
In a place called Heaven where the spirit ascends
Straight to this world few pass it by
And no one here can really die
Although this child you cannot see
I know you'd be so proud of me
I look forward to when I'll see you mum
So until it is your time to come
Enjoy your life
And please don't cry
I just came to say goodbye.
Steve Franklin Palmer
♥ ♥ HEAVEN ♥ ♥
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without the children there,
Playing hide and seek in pearly mists
Free from every pain and care.
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without their carefree rapture,
Scrambling through the fluffy clouds
Each happy moment to capture
♥ ♥
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without their shouts and laughter
Echoing across Elysian fields
As starbursts they chase after
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without their joyful choir
Ringing through celestial realms
Sweet voices rising ever higher
♥ ♥
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without their radiant light,
Undimmed by earth's murky shades
Their robes shining bright.
Heaven would not be Heaven
Without their smiles of pleasure,
Bearing sheaves of rainbow flowers;
Children are Heaven's treasure.
♥ ♥
Dream a Little Dream
Stars shining bright above you
night breezes seem to whisper
"I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree;
Dream a little dream of me.
Say "nighty night" and kiss me
just hold me tight and tell me
you'll miss me.
While I'm alone and blue as can be;
Dream a little dream of me.
Stars fading but I linger on Dear
still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn Dear
Just saying this:
Sweet dreams till sun beams find you
sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be;
Dream a little dream of me.
Stars fading but I linger on Dear
still craving your kiss.
I'm longing to linger till dawn Dear
just saying this:
Sweet dreams till sun beams find you
sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be;
Dream a little dream of me.
Sweet dreams till sun beams find you
sweet dreams that leave our worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be;
Dream a little dream of me.
Dream a little dream of me.(Lyrics by Mamas & Papas)

Signs are fore those who struggle with their belief
But I know you believe in me and it softens your grief
I do not need to send a sign to show that I am close
Trust the feeling in your heart, it's a stronger sign than most.
You cannot see or touch me
But I'm standing next to you.
Your tears will only hurt me,
Your sadness makes me blue.
Be brave and show a smiling face
Let not your grief show through.
I love you from a different place,
Yet I'm standing next to you.
Easter Eggs
If only our children were easter eggs
Hidden safely in the grass,
We could search for them and pick them up
And hold them in our grasp.
We’d have a heavenly easter egg hunt
All with baskets in our hands,
Searching with a broken heart
Only we could understand.
“Oh look, I found your child here!”
“Hey, did anyone find mine?”
They are so beautifully coloured
How they sparkle and they shine.
These aren’t your usual easter eggs
They each have their own special glow,
That comes from way down deep within
Only a grieving parent would know.
We gather up our special eggs
With excitement all around,
For the gift that we’ve been given
For the treasure we have found.
We all stare with wonderment
At our children that have died,
We want to hold them once again
And release them from inside.
But we all begin to realize
We’d have to crack their beautiful shell,
The one that makes them sparkle and glow
The one they have earned so well.
We can’t destroy their beauty
And take them from their magic place,
So we give them an understanding kiss
As the tears run down our face.
One by one we take our baskets
With our beautifully coloured eggs,
And place them gently in the grass
As we walk away with bowed heads.
We look back in amazement
As our eggs begin to sing,
We see them flutter and move about
“Look – our eggs all now have wings!”
Then the Golden Egg begins to speak
“Your children are safe with me,
You’ll be with them again when the time is right
Together for eternity.”
We stand there in a circle of love
As we look up to the sky,
Watching our radiant eggs take flight
Knowing our children didn’t die.
Dear Mr. Hallmark
I am writing to you from Heaven
And though it must appear
A rather strange idea
I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit
Your shops to find a card
A card of love for my Mum
As this day for her is hard.
There must be some mistake I thought
Every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card
From a child who lives in Heaven.
She is still a Mother too
No matter where I reside
I had to leave she understands
But oh the tears she cried.
I thought that if I wrote to you
That you would come to know
That though I live in Heaven now
I still love my Mummy so.
She talks with me and dreams with me
We still share laughter too
Prayers are our way of speaking now
Would you see what you can do?
My Mum carries me in her heart
Her tears she hides from sight
She thinks of me and misses me
Sometimes far into the night.
She plants flowers in her garden
There my memory dwells
She helps other grieving parents
Trying to ease their pain as well.
So you see Mr. Hallmark
Though I no longer live on earth
I must try to find a way
To remind her of her worth.
She needs to be honoured
And remembered too
Just like children on earth
For their Mums today do.
Thank you Mr. Hallmark
I know you’ll do your best
I have done all I can do
To you I’ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her
How much she means to me
Until I can do it myself
When we’re joined in Eternity.
allways iin my heart xxx

Missing You, Child, at Christmas
Everybody's rushing round
Full of festive cheer
But I'm finding all I want to do
At Christmas, is come here.
To talk to you a little while
And light a candle or two
I can't buy you a present
So what else can I do?
Remember child, I love you
I'm still hurting with this pain
I don't think it will ever stop
Until I'm with you once again.
thinking of you allways god bless little angel

Take a moment of your day
To maybe sit and in your mind
Think of all the precious babies
Yours, theirs and mine
Those whose short lives were over
Before they had really ever begun
Those precious little bundles
Who have made us all a Mum
Their tiny lives have touched us all
And what I want to say
They have brought us all together
Each and every day
The babies whose beautiful faces
In our minds forever will be
Whose names are etched within our hearts
For anyone, the whole world to see
The babies who touched our lives
Who we think of through our tears
I hope in time we will be able to smile
When we remember them through the years
So this week while we remember
All our babies who had to go
We shall show the world we are united
And how we love and miss them so X♥X
