Our Daisy,

The Daisy will forever remind us of our Beautiful Colette. The flower just seemed to fit her. I found these two poems today and I loved them so much I thought I should share them both.

The Legend of the Dasiy
The Creator looked down.
All over earth He saw parents
whose hearts were heavy.
they had lost the littlest of His creatures,
their precious children.

He saw their tears
and heard their silent prayers.
He sent to earth a special flower...
a flower that would be just for them.
He scattered this little flower
far and wide...
in gardens and in fields,
along roads and paths,
in bright sunlit pastures
and into the darkest corners.

The Creator sent these saddened parents
the daisy, a little flower
to be watered with their tears.

The daisy symbolized the soul of their children.
It's bright white petals represented
their purity and innocence;
the green of its leaves,
the promise and hope
for brighter days to come.

The daisy thrived everywhere.
It stretched its bright face toward Heaven.
The special little flower was given
to remind each mother and father
that their little one rested
in the light and beauty of the Creator.

Thinking of You with Love
We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
we often speak your name.
All we have are memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
with which we will never part.
God has you in His keeping,
we have you in our hearts.
A million times we`ve wanted you.
A million times we cried.
If love could only have saved you,
you never would have died.
It broke our hearts to lose you.
But you didn`t go alone.
For a part of us went with you...
the day God called you Home.
