Monday 21st December
Someone left a gift for you,
Placed gently on your graveside.
A little heart and a flying dove,
With a white ribbon it was tied.
“In our hearts forever”, it read.
As that is where you are.
And up above in the sky at night,
You twinkling, shining star.
‘Frank’ was written, with a kiss,
Because it’s just for you.
Bought with lots and lots of love,
But left with sadness, too.
I found out later who it was,
The giver of the token.
My sister had been to visit you,
She stood, words unspoken.
You meant so much to all of us,
We’ll never, ever forget you.
Our first Christmas without you,
It’s heaven, we’ll look up to.
Love you sweetheart.
Missing you so much.

What a beautiful gift to leave.
