Signs From a Loved One Did you see that butterfly, the one that’s just flown by?

Yes well that was me I was just trying to say hi.

The robin in the garden, yes of course that was me too, I just wanted you to notice that I’m still right here with you.

The feather that you found, the white one on the floor, Yes that was me just giving you the sign I know you’ve been looking for.

Because I’ll never ever leave you, even though heaven feels quite far.

No matter where you go in life I’ll always be wherever you are.

Our song that comes on the radio, a feather, a bird, a butterfly, Remember that is a sign from me whenever you question why Even when you feel alone, know you’re not I am here, You carry our love within every single tear.

So please know that I am with you, I wish I could take away your pain, But the love we shared is always around and it will always remain.

CLOSING WORDS

CELTIC BLESSING

May the road rise up to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
