One year

Photobucket

A year ago a gentle blossom was taken from my dear friends. The world has not been quite as bright since. I hope she is in a better place and I wish whatever comfort and peace is possible for her loving family on this sad anniversary.

Thank you gentle Alesya for the blessed memories you left behind.

My heart is with you on this sad anniversary, Gentle Mac.

Now the day is over,
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.

Now the darkness gathers,
Stars begin to peep,
Birds, and beasts and flowers
Soon will be asleep.

Father, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose;
With Thy tenderest blessing
May mine eyelids close.

Grant to little children
Visions bright of Thee;
Guard the sailors tossing
On the deep, blue sea.

Comfort those who suffer,
Watching late in pain;
Thou beside the bedside
Sorrows to restrain.

Now the day is over,
Night is drawing nigh,
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.

Good evening, gentle friend.

Thanks for keeping memory of our Alesya. She had short,but bright life, she continue to be a blessing in our life and life of her siblings, striving to be better, to be like she was.

Thank you, Zoya. Your lovely daughter shined so brightly and gave so freely. She was a reflection of the loving and caring home you make for your family. My best to you and to them.
