RE: Birthday verses

Lord, light 29 beautiful candles
And sing Happy Birthday from me...
His next Birthday in Heaven
And I wonder what his wish will be...

Tell him that I love him and miss him,
and I can't wait to see his smile...
Place a kiss upon his cheek
And hold him for a while...

RE: Birthday verses

How melancholy now this day when you were born--
A day we used to greet with balloons and streamers and song.
How I loved to see the smile on your face and in your eyes
As you saw the surprises we had hidden away.
You jumped with excitement at the thought of the party to
come
With all your special friends
And games and music and prizes and fun--
And, of course, best of all, the cake made just for you,
Embellished with your name and age and all ablaze with
candles.
Oh, the magic of closing your eyes and making the perfect
wish
That was sure to come true!
Now, the only wish that I would ever make
Can never come to pass--
For you cannot return.
A great longing to see you and hold you and kiss you
Comes over me and brings me down.
Still, even in my grief, come flashes
Of memories that can never fade--
The sweetness of your smile and voice,
The goodness of your soul.
And deep within me rises again
The hope that we will meet once more,
In God's own time and place.
Happy birthday, my precious son!

A special Birthday(Author Unknown)

Please God, make them remember that
Today is a special, birthday.
Make them understand that
The memories don't go away.
Bless them, with ears to hear and hearts that care.
Enable them to listen while I share.
Shelter them that they may never know my pain.
Help them to help me know that my child's life was not in vain.
Help them to remember, Lord that I wish
That my child was here
So we could still celebrate.
To understand that I still
Feel the nearness of my child.
To see beyond my smile and the
Words. "I'm okay."
Please God, just let one remember today
Is a special birthday!

We cannot send a birthday card,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.

As I opened my eyes this morning
I looked to the heavens above,
I whispered, 'Happy Birthday, Son,
And sent you all my love
