our daughter
Perhaps your days seem lonely
The sky's no longer clear
The sun somehow forgets to shine
When you've lost someone so dear
There seems to be an empty space
Which no one else can fill
For nobody can take your place
And no one ever will
And all the words of comfort
Which friends and family send
Are not enough to heal your pain
And make the sadness end
But they can be a soothing balm
To ease an aching heart
And set your feet upon the path
Where life again can start
Then suddenly you'll realise
Your healing has begun
And then, behind those clouds of grey
Once more you'll find the sun
Along the shore i spy a ship
as she sets out to see
she spreads her sails and sniffs the breeze
and slips away from me.
i watch her fading image shrink
as she moves on and on
until at last, she's but a speck
and some one shouts 'she's gone'
Gone where? gone only from our sight
and from our farewell cries,
that ship will somewhere re-appear
to other eager eyes.
Beyond the dim, horizon's rim
resound the welcome drum's
and while we're cryin' There she goes!
There shouting 'Here she comes!
we're built to cruise , but for a while
upon this trackless sea,
until one day we sail away
into infinity
She has gone across the river
to the shore of evergreen
and we long to see her dear face
but the river run's between
someday,some time we shall see
the face we love so well
some day we'll clasp her little hand
and never say farewell.
Heaven made an angel
then sent her from above
just to be my daughter
and fill my world with love
all the joy i ever needed
was captured in her smile
she filled my life with sunshine
if only for a while
although i never thought there'd be
a time we'd have to part
when heaven took my angel back
he left a broken heart
God needed an angel in Heaven
To stand at the Saviour’s feet;
His choice must be the rarest
A lily pure and sweet.
He gazed upon the mighty throng
Then stopped and picked the best,
Our child was His chosen one
With Jesus she’s at rest
On the day God took you
I thought that I would die
I wondered where the time went?
I asked alot of whys??
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort,
I couldn't seem to hide,
I thought I might be dreaming
That I'd wake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening."
As I wiped another tear.
On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again,
I wondered if the pain would end,
But mostly, I wondered when??
It's hard to be without you,
At times the days seem long,
Sometimes I just sit crying,
When there's really nothing wrong.
I wish we'd had more time,
Before your life was done.
I hope your resting peacefully,
My beautiful precious one
Im nearly at your resting place
and just as i get near
i swear i hear your voice cry out
look-- im over here
ive brought some lovely flower's
for you my lovely daughter
i'll only be a minute now
ill just go and get some water
as i walk across the grass
and place the flowers in the pot
i say to god, forgive me lord
i miss her such a lot
they say that everything thats wished
comes to those who wait
i wish i could gather you in my arms
and run out of that place
We often sit and think of her
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only friend,
That grief can call its own;
Like ivy on the withered oak,
When other things decay,
Our love for her will still be green
And never fade away
The moment that you passed
our hearts we're split in two,
one side filled with memories
the other passed with you
no one knows the pain
our smiles try to hide
no one knows the many times
we've broken down and cried
we want to tell you something
so there is no doubt
your'e so wonderful to think of
but so hard to live without
Little Laura.
In a place where innocence
cant even be spelt,
to stay as pure as
the driven Yorkshire snow.
An' compassion to make
even the coldest heart melt,
will stay with me
wherever i go.
This cold hard land
was Laura's garden,
Laura's laughter brought
the sunshine to this place.
Looks like the concrete
playgound's fallen' silent,
just like me it longs
to see her pretty face.
My love for little Laura
is far deeper than deep space,
an' it may seem hard
to comprehend.
For souls who are cold
find it hard to embrace,
Daddies girls an'Dad's
are the very best of friends.
I'll remember every
single smile you did,
your steadfast
loyalty too.
An' i'll blow you a kiss
as big as this,
an' i'll send it
little Laura to you.
I'll sing you my song
on and on,
'till i cant sing no more.
I'll sing you my song
on and on,
just so you know the score.
An' to let
you people know,
just as sure
as rain is water.
This world will
be a darker place,
without the bright bright
light of little Laura.
tons 'n' tons 'n' tons
of love always
Laura Jean 'Porter'
all my love Daddy

Precious little child of mine
you were my sweetest dream,
when you took your journey home
i wonder what was seen
i knew the angels whispered
from the look upon your face
i knew that you were going
to a restful, peaceful place
and while my arms are empty
my heart is filled with dreams
of you at peace in heaven
that place eyes have not seen
so rest my child in gods safe arms
let angels kiss your face
till then, i hold you in my heart
till i meet you in that place.
The tide recedes, but leaves behind
bright sea-shell's on the sand
The sun goes down,but gentle warmth
still lingers in the land,
The music stops,and yet it echoes
on in sweet refrains
For every joy that passes
something beautiful remains.
She's a little bit of sunshine,
She's a smile to light our days,
She will steal your heart and keep it
with her warm endearing ways,
She's our precious little daughter,
With a sweetness from above
she will fill our years with laughter
and our lives with lots of love
Call heaven there's an Angel
That's coming home today.
Our hearts are sad and broken
Because she couldn't stay.
Fluff up the clouds and lay her
Gently in your care.
Place the princess halo
Softly in her hair.
We think about you always,
We talk about you still,
You have never been forgotten,
And by us, you never will.
We hold you close within our hearts,
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.
The little angels that Heaven holds
Were beckoned by God's will
As emptiness in our soul unfolds
In our hearts we love them still.
Guardian angels hold her tight
As the angel choir sings.
watching over her through the night
Enveloped in their wings.
She may be in the house of the Lord
But our child she'll always be.
For still there is the family cord
And it's there for eternity.
The day will come when you and I
Will walk on Heaven's hill.
Together we'll be hand in hand
Loving each other still.
I have not turned my back on you,
so there is no need to cry.
I'm watching you from heaven,
just beyond the morning sky.
I've seen you almost fall apart,
when you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
and watched him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
then I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my touch,
or see me by your side.
I've whispered that I love you,
while I wiped each tear you cried.
So please try not to ache for me,
we'll meet again one day,
beyond the dark and stormy sky,
a Rainbow lights the way.

me also of hendryx giving laura a kiss
