     Good memories are made to share,
     Bad memories will fade away,
     Because our Father is always there,
     Each and every day.
*
Her love warms you, as you as you go your way,
Because with the Father, she's happy, today.
And the memories that you turn to,
Will always keep her close to you.
* 
When you talk to Father, or silently pray,
Because of Jesus, she's not far away.
And the path that is set in front of you,
Each step you take, brings her closer, too.
*
REFLECTIONS TO FAMILY
 *
Your mother is a Christian,
And a Christian never dies;
But returns unto the Father,
While her love lives on inside.
*
Oh Father, this I earnestly pray,
Stay with each child, throughout the day;
And when temptations, their face do show,
Please guide them how You'd have them go.
 *
When you start to learn,
You start: A, B, C;
Once your letters are known,
It's the words that you see.
 *
Love and understanding
Are like a bouncing ball,
Which can only be caught,
After you have let it fall.
*
Share a little laughter,
A smile or wave will do.
'Twill brighten up another's day,
And make you happy, too.
 *
To pray, first close your mind,
And open your heart,
And the words to God,
You will impart.
*
When you go to count your blessings,
Each and every one,
And you think your count is finished,
God has just begun.
 *
A Christian friend is very rarel
They don't just take, they also share.
They quietly help, though it may not show,
And by lending a hand, help others to grow.
