May you know you are loved,
Every step of the way,
May you always have time,
For one another each day.
May your journey be joyful,
With plenty of smiles,
May you have comfort and strength,
Throughout all of life’s trials.

The steady gaze of
A calf, the gambolling of
Lambs, spring is here now!

Searching through memories like old film stills,
Remembering loved ones as if parts of dreams,
Bittersweet thoughts as an object brings an image long forgotten,
How life changes.
Looking through old photographs, seeking missed smiles,
Hearing their voices as a laugh is revealed on the page,
Finding new family with shared heritage,
How life continues.
Across miles and centuries as if there were none,
Family trees branch out, fingers of discovery touching hearts,
Dreams awoken and shared by further generations,
How life grows.
