It’s been awhile since my last post.  But, my heart has not stopped singing it’s song.  This one, I dedicate to my Mammy & Pappy.  Spreading my wings has been a challenge since losing them.  Please take the time to hug the ones you love, and above all, tell them how you feel. Today. Tomorrow. Always.  Love to all.  I hope this poem, “Fly Baby Fly” speaks to your heart and soul.

“Fly Baby Fly”

They said,

Spread your wings, now baby –

Fly baby fly.

I know the road is winding,

I know the road looks dark,

And, I know the road feels lonely,

But, it was time for us to part.

Now, the moment has come,

My darling,

To spread your wings and fly.

I know your heart is broken,

And I know your soul feels lost,

But, please hear me, baby,

My love will always guide you,

Memories are now your home.

Now, hold my hand, my darling,

And know this to be true,

Death may have taken

My body,

But my heart beats on

In you.

You are not alone.

Promise this, my child,

To take the wings I gave you,

And, fly baby fly.

My love will continue to guide you,

My soul will never die.

Wrap my angel wings

Around you,

Embark upon your journey,

I’ll take your hand in mine,

And I’ll remain right here

By your side.

My love will always guide you.

I know the road looks lonely,

I know the road looks dark,

I know the road is winding,

And it looks so very long.

My love will always guide you,

My hand is for you to hold,

The wings I gave you,

Strong.

Now promise me, my darling,

That fear will not confine you,

That you will take these wings

And fly.

Fly away, my darling,

Allow your wings to guide you,

To find the place where you belong.

I know your heart is breaking,

I know your soul is lost.

But, what I know for certain,

Is that my love for you lives on.

The wings I’m now wearing,

Will carry you along.

When life leaves you weary,

Your legs can walk no more,

Just take the wings I gave you

And fly, baby fly.

Please don’t allow the pain

To consume you,

Don’t let life pass you by.

Hold your head up, my darling,

And – Fly Baby Fly.

My heart lives on within you,

Don’t let life pass you by.

My love will always guide you,

It’s your time now

To fly.

Yes, spread your wings, my darling,

And hold your head up high.

Follow my gentle whispers,

And walk the winding road.

Even if it looks too lonely,

Or it looks too dark

To carry on.

I gave you those wings, my darling,

They are strong,

And they’ll guide your heart home.

So, spread your wings, my child,

And fly.

Yes, fly baby fly.

Your life is worth living,

Please don’t let it pass you by.

Wrap my wings around you,

When you need a guiding light.

But, my child, you must hear me,

Your time is now –

To spread the wings I gave you,

And fly,

Baby,

Fly.
