[SIZE=14pt]We'd like to catch a falling star[/SIZE]

and hold it in our hands-

but that is not for us to do

and not in our Lord's plans.

He chose this little creation to take

because He wanted her pain to cease,

so He brought her to His blessed land,

a majestic land where she'd find peace.

He came and held her gently,

and cradled her in His arms,

and told her not to be afraid,

and not to be alarmed.

So as they traveled up to this place

so many angels began to appear;

and right away she nickered at them

because they all looked so much like her!

This was such a special pasture,

where all the fallen stars have come;

they all are well and play and graze

under this eternal sun.

So although we can't understand,

why our precious ones are taken,

we must all know and realize,

that none of them have been forsaken.

And though our hearts cry out in grief

there is nothing we can do-

except to rejoice in our sweet memories,

and let them live on through you.

by~

Marty, I am once again crying so very hard. That is a beautiful tribute, thank you so much. If you don't mind, I'd like to place it on a memorial page for her when I have the ability to do it. Thank you.

Aww Tami it's such a helpless feeling for all your friends knowing you are going through such a sad time. I am so so so sorry about your loss.

Please of course, do take this poem for yourself.

Oh Marty! What a wonderful poem! God has given you such talents and you use them so well. You make us smile, laugh, and bring us to tears while blessing our hearts. I know Tami will forever ponder these words in her heart as she remembers her precious, Tiki. May God continue to bless you as you so bless the hearts of others.

Marty,

What a beautiful poem and a wonderful tribute to Tiki.

I am sure that Tami will treasure it along with that darling foal that Tiki left her.

Marty, you are a super good and caring person!! This Forum is so much better because of wonderful people like you.

You are always there in time of need and I know that you are very much appreciated.
