Losing the Battle
To you who are grieving for a loved one losing the battle with life.
And are at that place where it all seems inevitable.
Never give up, never say surrender
For there is always hope and miracles do happen
With your life on hold, nothing else seems to matter
for your sadness and pain, they are real, and everyone can see.
It is a challenging time, and no one truly knows how you feel
But when a chapter of your life is closing, if you get the chance
savour every last moment, grab hold and treasure it.
Hold your loved ones every moment as if it’s the last, do and say the things you need to.
In those precious moments, let them see only love in your eyes
Let no tears, sadness or anger invade
For tomorrow you can grieve.
It is not an easy path but let love guide you down the road.
In times like this, there should be no pretence
Let there be no regrets of what should have been said and done.
Tomorrow there will be only memories of how special those last moments were.
Right now, this moment is real. This moment is what you have.
Don’t make it about you, you are not losing the battle they are
Let it all be about them, and every day for them.

FRIENDSHIP
FRIENDSHIP
In the hustle and bustle of life, we seldom recognise
The people in our midst, they are like angels in disguise
The ones who make a sacrifice, that to you may seem small
In the realms of love and service, they are giving their all
You never need to impress them, they can see the real you
Behind the masks you wear, games you play, the things you do
They only see your beauty and light, and the good that you impart
They see beyond the skin you wear, they look inside your heart
Their kind words and special hello, gets lost in all the chatter
Their smile and presence at your side, never really did matter
Defending your honour when others are cruel and will despise
Speak of your truth with dignity and crushing those bitter lies
A true friend is sometimes revealed, when the going gets rough
Those times when you feel alone, when you don’t feel you’re enough
A true friend reminds you of your strength, they will be your mirror
They won’t soften life’s blows on you, but they will be your anchor

No Glory No Fame
These hands you see looking wrinkled and old, are the scars of love and mercy untold
The countless hours that they have spent, washing bodies bleeding, broken and bent
Gently reaching inside to mend you like new, yet strong enough to carry you
These eyes are no ordinary eyes you see, they’ve wept tears enough to fill the seas
They’ve seen things they wish they had not, painful to remember but forget they cannot.
These eyes full of love will hold your gaze, when you need honesty and not idle praise
They hold no scorn or judgement within, they don’t care who you are or where you’ve been.
This voice so calm and filled with compassion, is as sure as the rising and setting of the sun
This voice knows what to say how and when as you expect, always the truth with clarity and respect
This voice can turn gloom or a frown into a smile, a bit of laughter is good if only for awhile
This voice filled with hope and sincerity for you, calms your fears and comforts your heart too.
These feet walk many miles every day, and at night too checking as you lay.
These feet are up and running with every sound, reaching before you hit the ground
These feet spend hours at your bedside, standing as family cried the night you died.
These feet came to meet you so very unwell, the same feet walked with you as you bid farewell.
This soul is a soul true and strong, filled with purpose knowing where it belong
This soul faces every day with courage, fighting back the tears in the midst of carnage
This souls love for life is full of passion, will fight for life until another battle is won
This soul that I speak of needs no name, it’s an unsung hero that claims no fame…….

A GRATEFUL HEART- Elera
Whatever obstacles you face in life, face it with a grateful heart
As you grieve over your losses, remember with a grateful heart
You may be heartbroken and hurting, love with a grateful heart
Feeling alone and rejected, find comfort in a grateful heart
For happiness, love, healing, and peace will always find their way to a grateful heart
