Re: Readings for the Grave

it reminds me so much of my mum and how she would have talked to me about losing her, to soften the blow and also make me feel she's still around and indeed waiting for me, that brings a lump to my throat but then she was such a wonderful person it's the effect she still has on me, always knew the right thing to say to bring comfort as she did until the end..

Re: Readings for the Grave

this is another I liked

So go and run free

So go and run free with the angels
Dance around the golden clouds
For the lord has chosen you to be with him
And we should feel nothing but proud
Although he has taken you from us
And our pain a lifetime will last
Your memory will never escape us
But make us glad for the time we did have
Your face will always be hidden
Deep inside our hearts
Each precious moment you gave us
Shall never, ever depart
So go and run free with the angels
As they sing so tenderly
And please be sure to tell them
To take good care of you for me
