December 29
Fly Away
There's a bird that is watching
That's waiting for me.
He's waiting and watching
From high in a tree.
He sings his song
From dawn's early light
All through the day
Till the darkness of night.
Fly away, fly away
Come fly with me
We'll soar toward the heavens
How happy you'll be
Fly away, come fly
We'll glide with the wind
I'll be right beside you
My wings I will lend.
At the end of the day
When we have returned
A lesson in trust
You will have learned.

Hearts are shared together
No matter near or far
Within the starlight evening
You are our shining star
Looking out the window
Into the dark of night
Thinking of the love we have
It fills my soul with light
Merry Christmas, darling
I hold you in my dreams
Remembering the day we met
And all life in between
Each day and forever
I'm right there by your side
Spiritually together
Filled with so much pride
I know that when you're able
You'll walk through our front door
That day will be Christmas
For all of us once more.
I rested my head on your shoulder
And listened as you quietly breathed
The moment is held in my memory
Of a feeling so very sweet
The warmth from your body enbraced me
Your arms were a shield against pain
The gift of love given forever
And my life at that moment was changed

You stirred and my heart throbbed with longing
You whispered my name as you slept
My lips traced a kiss on your shoulder
And tears gently fell as I wept
Your love is as soft as a kitten
Like a fresh spring that flows from my soul
It nourishes my life and gives meaning
And for the first time I finally feel whole
