ASHTON CHARLENE LEMIRE November 7, 2007 My FIRST CHRISTMAS in Heaven I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below, With tiny light, like heaven's star, reflecting on the snow. The sight is spectacular; please wipe away your tears, For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear, But the sound of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here. I have no words to tell you, the joy the voices bring, For it is beyond description, to hear the Angels sing. know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart, But I am not so far away, we really are not apart. So be happy for me, you know I hold you dear, And be glad I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I send you each a special gift, from my heavenly home above; I send you each a memory of my undying love. After all, love is a gift more precious than gold, it was always most important in the stories Jesus told. Please love and keep each other, as my father said to do, for I can't count the blessings and love he has for you. So, have a Merry Christmas and wipe away the tears, for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. Lovingly remembered and will be forever missed, Brennan J. Lamirande
