Heaven's Door

Heaven's Door
This poem comes in a male and female version. It addresses the death of a young child. It is hard to find words in situations such as these. Hopefully poems such as this one, serve to comfort the parents in some small way. It is all we have to give them, really. No one can stop them from hurting...but perhaps words such as these can ease their suffering just a little bit. That is really all that we can hope for.

My Other Mother

My Other Mother
 
This poem could serve as a gift for your mother-in-law, but it could also be a gift for someone who was "like a mother" to you. Sometimes, in life, we encounter someone who we just feel "so at home" with. Someone who genuinely cares about us. Someone who is always there for us, no matter what. Can you imagine how touched "that person" would be to receive this in the mail from you. When we touch the heart of someone we love, that sort of gift makes a profound and lasting impression ...one which lives with them forever.

A Mother's Hands

A Mother's Hands
This is one of my favorite pieces. It is the story of how a mother starts off..and how she progresses through her life as a mother. It talks about the different challenges and joys that become a part of her life, and it tells the tale of how quickly children grow. This would be a lovely gift for your own mother, or for a new mother starting out. It is the timeless story of the love and dedication that a mother has for her child.

For My Stepmom

For My Stepmom

I, myself, am a stepmother to two (now grown) children. If you are a step-child, consider giving or sending this to your stepmother. Step-parents have a tough go of it. There are so many times when you just don't know "your place." Often times, there is a built in resentment towards the stepmother or stepfather. I understand that it is natural, given the circumstances, but it is still a hard pill to swallow. As a stepmother, my goal was always to integrate the two families...that is really all that I wanted. In those early years, maybe I wasn't as successful as I would have liked to have been, but as time has passed, things have gotten better. If you do give this to your stepmother, I guarantee you that it will be something she will cherish forever.

You'll Meet Again

You'll Meet Again
This poem is available in both a male and female version. It is a heart-wrenching poem that deals with the sudden and unexpected death of a grown child. Most likely, the child has already moved away from home. It is the poem that you give someone when you just can't find the words to comfort them. It focuses on how much the child was loved throughout his or her lifetime...and how they always knew that they were loved. It was heartbreaking to write it. I wrote it for a friend of mine, whose 28 year old son was struck down by a drunk driver. I know that the poem brought her comfort, and that is what motivated me to write it.

Grandparents Are Special
Once you have a child or children of your own...it is then that you come to realize what a special role grandparents play in their life/lives. As you watch them interact together, you are struck by the intense love and connection which they share. It is really a beautiful thing!

One True Friend

One True Friend
I wrote this poem for a very special friend, many years ago. It is amazing how much of an impact one person can have on your life, and how important a true friendship really is. If you have a friend who you truly love, think about sending this poem to them...for no reason at all. We will gladly include a personal note from you . It is a gift that would touch their heart, forever.

Looking Back, Mom
 

This poem is written from the perspective of someone who is now grown and is looking back upon their life, and the impact their mother had upon them. It is a recognition of the many sacrifices she has made for them. One of the lines, "There's a special place in heaven for Moms" sort of sums up how wonderful mothers really are.
