Children's Artwork


Mary
, age 10
I am from butterflies,
From skies above
My daddy and my grandma
Are the things I love.

I am from animals
From flowers of all kinds
Roses, Daisies, and Violets
I really don't mind.

I am from family
From friends most of all
From love and from caring
Is where I'm from most of all.


Andy, age 9
My Mom liked to sing.
My Mom was as nice
as 100 roses in the meadow.

My Mom was like
100 doves flying
in the air.


Cassidy, age 12 - Lost mom to breast cancer
Better Than Ever Love
Night fades as slow as a walking turtle.
The morning wind calls your name.
It whispers in your ear.

Love is no picnic nor walk in the park.
It’s a sign of happiness.
Enjoy it. Embrace it. Be happy.
Love is exciting.
It’s new every day.

Then Time will come.
You will get older
But you will still have love better than ever.

Years will go by.
Adding a family
But you will still have love better than ever.

A few years have gone by.
You’re 34 now
But with love better than ever.

You will get sick
And die very slowly
But with love better than ever.

Your love sits next to you
Crying in a chair
While you lie there dying very slowly
But with love better than ever.

You’re falling asleep,
Dreaming about love,
Better than ever love.

In the morning,
You can’t breathe, you can’t move, you can’t talk.
Your heart has stopped beating.
You lie there still knowing
You have love better than ever.

Love is holding your hand,
Crying more than before,
But you still lie there dreaming
An endless dream
About
Love
Better Than Ever.
