I'M SPENDING CHRISTMAS WITH JESUS THIS YEAR
(unknown author)
I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below.
With tiny lights, like heaven's stars
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear.
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear.
But the sounds of music can't compare
With the Christmas choir up here.
For I have no words to tell you
The joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description
To hear as angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I can't tell you of the splendor
Or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
With our Savior, face to face?
I 'll ask Him to light your spirit
As I tell Him of your love
So then pray one for another
As you lift your eyes above.
So please let your hearts be joyful
And let your spirit sing
For I'm spending Christmas in heaven
And I'm walking with the KING!
MISSING YOU AT CHRISTMAS
There’ll be one missing Christmas,
one place at table---bare,
one smiling face we’ll yearn for
just knowing you’re not there
One present left beneath the tree
after all have been passed out,
with pretty ribbon posed atop---
a heartfelt gift, no doubt
Voices soft, diminished,
we’ll sing a Christmas song,
hoping next year’s easier
for you haven’t been gone long
The joy of your great laughter
as the children gathered ‘round---
your spirit more like ‘Peter Pan’
in revelry and sound
The snow outside---light falling,
of which you were so fond,
swift on skis and snowboard,
and skating on the pond
Cozy by a crackling fire
we’ll surely quiet sit,
recalling times your lengthy frame
would stretch in front of it
We’ll have to gather all our faith
and be of one accord,
knowing you are safe with Him---
spending Christmas with our Lord…
Missing you at Christmas poem by Tamara Hillman.

KURLFINK FAMILY CREST
We are connected, My child and I,
by an invisible cord, not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord that connects
us 'til birth
This cord can't be seen by any on Earth.
This cord does its work right from the start.
It binds us together, attatched to my heart.
I know that it's there, though no one can see,
The invisible cord from my child to me.
The strength of this cord is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed, it can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord man could create,
It withstands the test, can hold any weight.
And though you are gone,
Though you are not here with me,
The cord is still there, but no one can see.
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline, as never before.
I am thankful that God connects us this way,
A mother and child--Death can't take it away!

A Mother's Grief
by Kelly Cummings
You ask me how I'm feeling
but do you really want to know?
The moment I try telling you
you say you have to go.
How can I tell you
what it's been like for me,
I am haunted, I am broken
but things that you dont see
You ask me how I'm holding up
but do you really care?
The second i try to speak my heart
you start squirming in your chair.
Because I am so lonely
you see, no one comes around
I'II take the words I want to say
and quietly choke them down.
Everyone avoids me now
because they don't know what to say,
They tell me I'II be there for you
then turn and walk away.
Call me if you need me
that's what everyone said,
But how can I call you and scream into the phone
My God, My Child is Dead!
No one will let me
say the words I need to say,
Why does a mother's grief
scare everyone away?
I am tired of pretending
as my heart pounds in my chest,
I say the things to make you comfortable
but my soul finds no rest.
How can I tell you things
that are too sad to be told,
Of the helplessness of holding a child
who in your arms grows cold?
Maybe you can tell me
how should one behave,
Who's had to follow their child's casket
watched it perched above a grave?
You cannot imagine
what it was like for me that day,
To place a final kiss upon that box
and have to turn and walk away.
If you really love me
and I believe you do,
If you really want to help me
here is what I need from you.
Sit down beside me
reach out and take my hand,
Say My Friend, I've come to listen
I want to understand.
Just hold my hand and listen
that's all you need to do,
And if by chance I shed a tear
It's alright if you do to!!
