Death takes no Holidays
Death takes no Holidays belongs to the following groups:
Live, Love, Dream: and Safe HavenDeath takes no holidays
The phone rings
and time stands still at the words
Death takes no holidays.
Christmas is a time to celebrate
with family and friends,
To share love, joy, and happiness
Joy should fill the air
happinesss should shine in the twinkle of the lights
The gay wrapping on the gifts
reflects a time of happyness
Death takes no holidays
It will strike at a moments notice
Shattering the joy, the happiness
My heart breaks at the words
death takes no holidays
My eyes flood with tears
my hands and body begin to shake
my body tenses, my mind shuts off
except for one word
WHY?
Why i ask?
A cold whisper touches my ear…
it whispers the words
Because death takes no holidays!
My complete and utter sorrow goes to those who have been
touched by death at time of joy.
Death takes no holidays!
( I recieved a phone call alittle while ago. My uncle, whom I loved dearly has passed away) I will struggle to fight back the tears and celebrate his life at a time of the year when joy should prevail! My heart is breaking with the love i feel for him. May you rest in Peace Uncle Reg! i will celebrate your life and always remember the memories)
Peace my friend

THank you so much Von! It was a shock as he was not ill that I’m aware of. It struck out of the blue and has rocked my world. I’m struggling to try and remain happy for little one, and battling back tears of grief. I will raise a glass in his honor tonight and do my best to celebrate his love of life!.Hugs :-}

very sorry for your loss kelly….............I know all too well the pain it brings at any time. you have the right thoughts however, remembering your beloved Uncle in celebration of his life and the wonderful memories….........may those memories keep you in peace and I’m sure he would want yout to celebrate the Holidays with smiles. Peace to you in this time~
and if you do need to break down and cry…....then so be it. little one will learn that emotions cannot be put on hold just because the calendar says it’s a certain day
