Loss of a child

Their love was taken away from us
At a time we needed more
This really hurt our feelings
Deep into our hearts core

With love and understanding
We know that they are there
And we talk to them everyday
To show that we still care

Although we lost a loved one
And we are feeling sad
The love will never go away
From a mother and a dad

This time we'd like to spend alone
With the child we didn't meet
They didn't touch this earthly ground
With their little hands and feet

LITTLE CRY

When you are feeling very low,
Full of anger and the tension.
And you feel unhappy about things,
You don't want to mention

You don't think there is any thing,
To put all these things right.
Stand back and ask a question,
Look in a different light.

Go into a quiet room,
Take a deep breath and a sigh.
To release all built up tension,
Sit down and have a cry.

So next time you feel unhappy,
Give this a little try.
Help find your happiness,
And have a little cry.

To help bring out those smiles again,
You need a little sorrow.
So have a little cry today,
Wake up happier tomorrow

DANCING WITH THE ANGELS

When you're dancing with the angels
And you're close up to the edge
You think of things so positive
To stop you falling off the ledge

The angels can only help you
If you try to help yourself
For earthly things don't matter
Like belongings or your wealth

When you're dancing with the angels
Brighter lights you will see
It's up to you which way you go
It is your own destiny

Which ever way you decide to go
Angels will smother you with love
If you decide to stay on earth
Or go to the heavens up above

OUR TROOPS

IT IS NOT OUR WAR TO FIGHT
ON SOMEONE ELSES SOIL
THIS IS JUST POLITICAL
AND IS ONLY BECAUSE OF OIL

THERE ARE LOADS OF RELIGIOUS FANATICS
WHO GO AROUND IN GROUPS
LED BY RELIGIOUS LEADERS
AND THEY TRY TO KILL OUR TROOPS

TROOPS HAVE PHOTOS OF THEIR CHILDREN
WHO THEY CANT TUCK UP IN BED
LOOKING FORWARD TO THEIR RETURN HOME
AND PRAYING THEY WONT BE DEAD

SO FOR THEIR LITTLE CHILDREN
PLEASE HELP US DEAR LORD
WE PRAY FOR THEIR SAFETY EVERYDAY
SO BRING OUR TROOPS HOME FROM ABROAD

Regain Composure

History is one thing
Which you can never change
Although some things will be resolved
And even rearranged


You must work through the troubled times
And forget about what’s done
Don’t hesitate or contemplate
You think of number one


You will then regain composure
And refocus on your life
Just think about your self for once
And get rid of all the strife

Bodywork

When your body really isn’t well
It’s like an engine that is broke
You need a boost of energy
Like an engine has a choke


You may need medication
Like an engine needs its oil
It also needs its coolant
To stop it over boil


So next time you’re not feeling well
Think of yourself as a car
If you look after the bodywork
It will take you really far


Written by David Boyce

Elevated Thought


Elevate your thought process
To a place that’s far away
You only need a short time there
You do not need to stay


Sit there in the quietude
When there is no one about
Ask them to come and talk to you
They will come through, without a doubt


Think of all the things you see
And what you don’t understand
Ask for other messages
Don’t expect or just demand


The memories you will be sent
Will be clear and distinct
You will decipher these quite easily
And you will not need to think


So when you have the answers
For you to just believe
Thank them all for helping you
And you’re ready then to leave

LIFE IS LIKE A TRAIN DRIVER


IN LIFE YOU'RE LIKE A TRAIN DRIVER
READY JUST TO DRIVE.
IN LIFE YOULL HAVE YOUR UPS AND DOWNS
YOULL LEARN JUST TO SURVIVE

YOU START THERE AT THE STATION
WAITING FOR THE WHISTLE TO BE BLOWN.
THE GREEN LIGHTS THERE AHEAD OF YOU
UNTIL YOUR FULLY GROWN

YOU'VE STARTED GOING FORWARD
THERE IS NO GOING BACK
THE ROUTE IS SET AHEAD OF YOU
JUST LIKE THE RAILWAY TRACK.

LIKE JUNCTIONS, THERE'S DECISIONS
WHICH YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE
ONCE YOU DECIDE WHICH WAY TO GO
THIS LIFE YOULL HAVE TO MAKE

LIKE TROUBLES THERE ARE TUNNELS
I KNOW THAT THIS IS TRUE
YOU NEED TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE NOW
YOU NEED TO STRUGGLE THROUGH.

FOR JUST AROUND THE CORNER
THE WAY THAT LIFES TRACK BENDS
THERE WILL BE A STOP BLOCK
AND THAT'S WHERE LIFES JOURNEY ENDS

Railway Track Danger

They don't understand the dangers
Whilst playing on the railway track
If they get hit by the train
There is no coming back

Just hope to god that they will see
As the train is getting near
Although they will be frightened
With a body full of fear

Hopefully, the driver will see them
And take a second glance
Then the brakes will be applied
This is their second chance

Please help and stop your children
From playing on the railway track
There will be a bigger chance tonight
That your child will be coming back

The Night

As darkness falls,
full of sorrow.
For night is here,
Until the morrow.

As darkness falls,
Across the land.
Across the sea,
Across the sand.

The moon comes out,
In all its might.
It shines on earth,
Throughout the night

As dusk arrives.
The sun does rise.
A new day starts,
Another, Surprise.

The Sounds of drums are calling

The Sounds of drums are calling
Up and down the street
Calling all those who need to go
Where loved ones, once again will meet

The Sounds of drums are calling
With a prominent beat
Loved ones are waiting patiently
On the other side to greet

The Sounds of drums are calling
To the ill and the infirm
This is your chance to leave this life
Now this is your turn

The Sounds of drums are calling
You will hear until you leave
You need to walk in to the light
And leave your family grieve

Don't be frightened of dying

Don't be frightened of dying
We all have to go
Some people do get warnings
So they already know

So when you've had an illness
And the whispers you hear are true
This will be your loved ones
Telling you they are there for you

When you see the shadows
Of people standing within sight
They are there to show you
We are waiting within the light

So when you think you're ready
Talk to your loved ones there
When you pass through the white light
They will all be there

When I lay down beside you

When I lay down beside you
Sometimes, late at night
I look at your face
That is shining so bright

I think of the times
We have had together
On all different days
In all kinds of weather

I look at your smile
Whilst you dream, still asleep
And inside your head
Many of them will keep

I look at you breathe
Some shallow, some deep
I watch you in silence
Until I fall asleep

Your Own Ability


Only you know your ability
Only you can make it strong
If you take time and concentrate
It shouldn't take you very long

You will get out, what you put in
And it's all within your grasp
Sometimes you will learn all alone
And sometimes you will have to ask

There will be times you'll need to sit
In a group and not alone
You can learn from others
With experiences, of their own.

NEW YEARS EVE


THIS IS THE LAST DAY OF THE YEAR
THEY CALL IT NEW YEARS EVE
LOOK BACK AT ALL THE MEMORIES
THIS YEAR YOU’RE GOING TO LEAVE


SOME YOU WILL CHERISH ALWAYS
AND KEEP FOR ALL IT’S WORTH
BECAUSE SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU
HAS BEEN GIFTED WITH A BIRTH


SOME OTHERS YOU WISH TO FORGET
BUT KNOW YOU NEVER WILL
FOR SOMEONE CLOSE PASSED OVER
AND SOME WERE NEVER ILL


SOME WILL BE VERY PLEASANT
AND CLOSE TO YOUR HEART
SIT DOWN AND LIST THE GOOD THINGS
BACK TO JANUARY MAKE A START


SO WHEN YOU FEEL UNHAPPY
IN THE NEW UPCOMING YEAR
SIT DOWN AND READ YOUR MEMORIES
AND SMILE FROM EAR TO EAR


DON’T PONDER ON THE BAD THINGS NOW
ONLY TEARS WILL BE SHED
FOR TOMORROW IS A NEW START
A NEW YEAR IS AHEAD

 Winters day


Today the sun is shining
With an ever brighter glow
The temperatures gone really cold

And they say it may even snow


Everything is frozen white
A blanket of frost across the floor
The brightness of the sun reflects

And makes it look like snow


If you’re taking photographs
The scenery looks really nice
But it is very dangerous
As the water turns to ice


By afternoon the frost has gone
You feel the heat upon your face
The Gritting Lorries will be out tonight
For your safety, just in case.

I ASK OF YOU


I ASK OF YOU
TO SPEAK WITH ME
WHEN IT IS SAFE
AND I AM FREE


I ASK OF YOU
TO BRING TO ME
FRIENDS, RELATIVES
AND FAMILY


I ASK OF YOU
TO SAY TO ME
A SECRET THING
OR MEMORY


I ASK OF YOU
TO HELP ME LEARN
TO SEND ME THOUGHTS
I CAN CONFIRM

 WATERS EDGE


I AM SITTING HERE

AT THE WATERS EDGE

MY BODY PERCHED

UP ON THIS LEDGE

THE WATERS DEEP

AND LOOKS SO COLD

MY MIND DRIFTS OFF

TO MEMORIES OF OLD

I THINK OF THE TIMES

WHEN WE WOULD MEET

AS THE WATER FLOWS

AROUND MY FEET

WE WOULD STROLE AROUND

BOTH ARM IN ARM

AS I CONCENTRATE

ON THE WATERS CALM

Walking the dogs


Many times we’d take the dogs out,
For their daily walk.
We’d go out for a wonder,
On the way we’d have a talk.


The dogs ran round so happily
Sometimes they’d even clash
They’d run around like idiots
In the big field and long grass.


I remember like its yesterday
As if a big long dream
On the way home we’d stop for five
So the dogs drank at the stream.


The memories of yesteryear
When I was but a child
When we had a laugh and a joke
With the dogs just running wild.

ANNIVERSARY


An anniversary is a confirmation,
Of the time you’ve had together.
Things change, for both of you constantly,
Just like the daily weather.


Both of you have lots of love
In the time, which you have spent.
Only the two of you will know,
What that love really meant.


An anniversary is a stepping stone,
To help you through your life.
It shows love and commitment,
Between a husband and a wife.

I REMEMBER

I REMEMBER THE DAY,
YOU WAVED ME OFF, GOODBYE.
 YOUR GRINNING SMILE,
AND TEAR IN YOUR EYE.
 
I REMEMBER THE THINGS YOU SAID TO ME,
COS YOU SAID THEM OUT SO LOUD.
“SON YOU MAKE ME HAPPY,
YOU REALLY MAKE ME PROUD"
 
I WORE MY UNIFORM AT GROUND ZERO,
WITH YOUR SMILE STILL IN MY HEAD.
AS I THOUGHT HOW I MISSED YOU ALL,
LIKE THE FAMILIES OF ZEROS DEAD.

 LIFES CHALLENGES


As long as you are happy
That is all that counts
Don’t worry about the rumours
Happiness is paramount


Some think they know everything
About you and your life
But there are certain things kept
Between a husband and a wife


Ahead, the time is challenging
And things you must decide
Look forward and think carefully
These choices you’ll have to abide


Life is full of decisions
Nobody knows what’s around the bend
Remember you’re not all alone
Things will turn ok in the end

Written by David Boyce

Tranquil surroundings


When you know you are dieing
And you don’t have very long
Talk to those already there
To help keep you very strong


Your faith is irrelevant
And the same you are all treated
Your faith will help you through this life
Until the day that you are greeted


The day that you feel ready
Just walk towards the light
Your illness will be taken away
And your soul will feel so bright


A totally different feeling
No fear or alarm
Just tranquil surroundings
This will make you very calm


Written by David Boyce

If I don’t wake up in the morning


If I don’t wake up in the morning
Give everyone my love
I will be watching over you
From the heavens up above


Thank them for the help they gave
To me whilst I was there
For the happiness and laughter
We had together each year


To my lovely children
Who will be crying for some time?
I will be beside you forever
As you go along your own lifeline


Don’t be hard on others
Don’t swear or rant and rave
Remember all the times we had
And all the love we gave


If I don’t wake up in the morning
I will be waiting next to god
We will meet again some day
When you’re ready, give me the nod

CLAIRVOYANCE


DON’T TRY TOO HARD
DON’T THINK A
LOT
JUST USE THE POWERS
YOU HAVE GOT


WHEN YOU NEED THE CORRECT ANSWERS
FOR YOU TO KNOW IT’S TRUE
I WILL SEND SPINE CHILLING FEELINGS
ALL THE WAY FROM ME TO YOU


WHEN YOU DON’T GET THAT FEELING
YOU WILL KNOW THAT IT’S NOT RIGHT
I WILL ALSO SEND YOU IMAGES
THROUGH YOUR SPIRITUAL SIGHT


THESE VISIONS WILL BE MEMORIES
AND THINGS YOU’LL UNDERSTAND
THEY WILL COME SO CLEARLY
LIKE A
MISSION THAT’S WELL PLANNED


WITH THESE YOU’LL HAVE THE FEELINGS
FOR A SHORT TIME THEY WILL LAST
THIS WILL SHOW YOU SOME CONDITIONS
FROM THE LOVED ONES WHO HAVE PASSED


DON’T HESITATE TO USE IT
WHENEVER YOU GET THE CHANCE
THIS IS A SPECIAL GIFT YOU HAVE
IT’S CALLED “CLAIRVOYANCE”
