"Honey"
Special sequencing by Dreamsharer...don't
borrow!
Valentines Day has been the hardest holiday for me
these past fifteen years, and I'd say it's high time for me to stop being
so depressed over it and realize just what this Valentines Day is really
all about. My little beloved brother, Eddie, died on 5 February 1983. Due
to all sorts of problems and the fact that he was in Hawaii at the time,
we weren't able to bury him until 14 February, which is Valentines Day.
Valentines Day is a special day, set aside as a day
of love, to show the ones you love just what they mean to you. That's the
reason for this special page, it's hard on me to work on this page, but
I want each and every one of you to know just how special you are to me
and that I love you all! This page is also to show my little Angel brother
just how much he meant to me. I loved that little guy so very much, and
he's always in my heart!
As I Lay Me Down
It felt like spring time on this February morning
In the courtyard birds were singing your praise
I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel alright
I carried them with me today Now
As I lay me down to sleep
This I pray
That you will hold me dear
Though I'm far away
I'll whisper your name into the sky
And I will wake up happy
I wonder why I feel so high
Though I am not above the sorrow
Heavy hearted Till you call my name
And it sounds like church bells
Or the whistle of a train
On a summer evening I'll run to meet you
Barefoot barely breathing
As I lay me down to sleep
This I pray
That you will hold me dear
Though I'm far away
I'll whisper your name into the sky
And I will wake up happy
It's not too near for me
Like a flower I need the rain
Though it's not clear to me
Every season has its change
And I will see you
When the sun comes out again
By: Sophie B. Hawkins
Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
By: Christina Rossetti (1830-1894)
