Dreaming

If Snow should fall throughout the night,
My eyes shall be open;
Let snowflake edges sting me ~

If Stars should shine across the sky,
My eyes shall be open;
Let their brilliance blind me ~

If Winter’s winds should blow like knives,
My eyes shall be open:
Let the winds tear tears from me ~

If in the darkness Death should come,
My eyes shall be open;
Let Death turn away this night ~

My babies sleep free at last.

For All You’ve Meant To Me

For All You’ve Meant To Me

For your friendship ~
through the years,
For your acceptance ~
no matter what,
For your encouragement ~
to venture anew,
For your support ~
that lit the dark,
For your strength ~
that I often borrowed;


For Johnny’s “Pat-Pat-Tap-Tap”
and a safe place for my Aly,
For letting me have Cris
With love in your heart;

For all you’ve meant to me ~
I wish you love and peace
and the happiest of days.

Que el calor del sol te acaricie,
Que su luz te muestre la senda;
Que la paz de viva eternamente en tu corazón,
Que el Amor Verdadero siempre te guarde.

Que tus días en la tierra sean ligeros;
Mientras Dios guie tu viaje.

Por Nidia, mi amiga

May the warmth of the sun caress you,
May its light show you the path;
May peace be ever in your heart,
May True Love always hold you;

As God guides your journey.
