The Shopping Trip By Linda Vicory As I peruse the aisles Of the local store I see things more differently Than I ever have before "Mummy's little angel" The embroidered bibs do read But mummy's angel is in heaven And bibs he does not need He does not need a bottle A jumper or a toy Of buying those things for him We shall never know the joy There are tiny jars of baby food That he will never eat And shiny shoes with buckles That will never touch his feet As the bikes and trikes, they taunt me From high up on the rack Tears will break from my eyes If ever I look back I run off to the bathroom To blow my nose and cry I wipe my eyes, swallow hard, And then let out a sigh I must go face the paper Erasers and wide rule That he, my little angel Will never use in school I hurry past the greetings cards That people choose with care And then I am reminded Of holidays, we shall not share In the checkout line I bow my head And heavy is my heart For the family right in front of me Has a newborn in their cart Shopping from the local store Used to be mundane Now every aisle is full of items That remind me of my pain So, quick as I can, I give the cashier The money from my purse And hurry from those who don't know my pain In this foreignly happy universe.

Mothers Day A kiss to you on mothers day A hug from me to you I know that you are sad sometimes I know that you are blue Please wipe away that tear Put on a happy face For I'm with God in heaven now Oh mummy, what a wonderful place! God gave me wings so I could fly They are white with a hint of blue I'm a big boy mummy, with these wings of mine They carry me down to visit you God is teaching me how to catch your prayers Prayers that come as wishes Your wish is the same everyday A wish that I could have stayed I have a prayer for you now mummy I pray that you will hear God needed me here with Him I have no pain or fear For I am an angel now you see I watch over you each night and day A little piece of heaven on earth Guiding you on your way I come to tuck you in each night As you wanted to do with me I hear your prayers and kiss your cheek Then I watch you dream Before I leave you and go back home I look at you and sigh And as I fly back to heaven I sing you a lull-a-bye A kiss to you on mothers day A hug from me to you I love you mummy, please don't cry You'll get to hold me soon.

No one sees the broken heart That lies beneath my smile No one sees the loneliness That's with me all the while Silent tears gently fall That others do not see For my precious Bailey Who meant the world to me Love mummy xxx

An angel with the book of life Wrote down my sons birth And whispered as he closed the book Much too beautiful for earth

Once I held an angel, so very close to me I watched him run and jump and dance But only in my memory I waited for the day he'd come He'd bring such joy to all Then the angel was called home, He never had to fall He was too perfect for this world He didn't need to stay He went straight up to heaven And I'll join him there someday

A million times I've needed you A million times I've cried If love alone could have saved you You would have never died In life I loved you dearly In death I love you still In my heart you hold a special place That none will ever fill It broke my heart to lose you But you did not go alone For part of me went with you The day called you home.

On the day of Bailey's funeral we played a song going in and a song going out. We picked these songs because of the words and they've since become 'Bailey's songs' You'll Be In My Heart Come stop your crying it will be alright Just take my hand, hold it tight I will protect you from all around you I will be here don't you cry For one so small, you seem so strong My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm This bond between us can't be broken I will be here don't you cry Cuz you'll be in my heart Yes you' ll be in my heart From this day on Now and forevermore.

A Whole New World I can show you the world Shining, shimmering, splendid Tell me princess, now when did You last let your heart decide? I can open your eyes Take you wonder by wonder Over, sideways and under On a magic carpet ride A whole new world A new fantastic point of view No one to tell us no Or where to go Or say we're only dreaming A whole new world A dazzling place I never knew But when I'm way up here It's crystal clear That now I'm in a whole new world with you Unbelievable sights Indescribable feelings Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling Through an endless diamond sky A whole new world Don't you dare close your eyes A hundred thousand things to see Hold your breath- it gets better I'm like a shooting star I've come so far I can't go back to where I used to be A whole new world Every turn a surprise With new horizons to pursue Every moment red- letter I'll chase them anywhere There's time to spare Let me share this whole new world with you A whole new world That's where we'll be A thrilling chase A wonderful place For you and me
