Five years ago a gift was given...
Jeff’s Gift
What? Jeff? Oh My God. The words shattered my core
Our togethers have ended, Sweeping, utter sorrow
Please, my Lord, can I hear him laugh once more?
For us, there will be no more tomorrow
There are no promises made to any of us
Of lovely bright sunny days with skies all of blue
Jeff whose ways were so good, so precious,
kind, funny and loving. God blessed me greatly with you
For so long, it was just us; my kiddos and me
Jeff, lite up a room, funny, witty twinkling eyes
In an instant now gone! But later I did see
Someone, deep from his loss cane a blessing to define
His love to us, and ours to him, is ageless, and timeless
In the depths of sorrow, there was a light. So how do I start?
For profoundly and forever we were so blessed
The eternal gift Jeff gave us. God of his heart
We last spoke: “I love you”. “I love you more”.
We has such hope, son and mother
Evening of day, our time I implore
We planned, we shared, my anchor.
The pain of his loss so unspeakably great
It smothers me completely this painful dark
It destroyed yet I breathed, but in this painful fate,
The Lord touched my heart and lite a spark
many more days Jeff had wanted to be
Dearest Tiffany, Brittany, Ryan, Ashley and Taylor
My lovely sweet family, Jeffs needs you to see
how deeply and completely he loved you all more
I’m thankful for life, so precious so sweet, so glad for Heaven's
gifts each day God brings. For it is in losing we see
Time spent together truly deepens
a sweet smile, a hug, hearing laughter full of glee
My son, my precious young man, thank you for your gift
on June 25th. A gift of life beyond – from heaven above
This blessing beyond words – far more than deserved
Jeff’s gift - a gift of pure love
