The Spark of Adoration Poem - Her Red Hair Burns Like the Rays of the Sun

I wrote the Spark of Adoration poem for my daughter Sarah (she is the girl with the long, beautiful red hair featured in the photo below). The typed version of the poem is available in my Etsy Shop (the link is at the top of the blog). I also offer typed versions that switch blue eyes, with brown or green eyes for the redheads who don't have blue eyes.

The wonderful thing about the Spark of Adoration poem is that even though it's about love and beauty it isn't just for romantic couples. I've had men purchase the poem on Etsy to give to their girlfriend and wives but I've also had mothers and daughters buy the poem for one another and friends who purchase it as a gift for their favorite redheaded friend. Best of all I've had redheads who buy the poem for themselves!

Feel free to share this poem with your favorite redhead, as long as my name is included with the poem I don't mind you sharing!

Feel Better Friends Little Dove Sympathy Card

Back in November (2014) the creator of the non-profit Feel Better Friends charity contacted me through Etsy. She asked if she could use my Little Dove poem for their Feel Better Friends volunteer team. I gave her permission to use the verse and she created a beautiful sympathy card. I am thankful to be part of such a beautiful children's charitable organization.

What Feel Better Friends Does for Sick Children

The Feel Better Friends organization makes handmade dolls for children who are fighting illnesses such as cancer. These dolls are hand crafted with love to look just like the child. The children can bring their dolls with them to the hospital so they have their own little buddy with them. The children are very excited to receive these special dolls.

You can see photos of the children and their dolls on the official Feel Better Friends Facebook page. You can visit the Feel Better Friends website at www.FBFdolls.org to find out more about the charity. If you would like to volunteer to make dolls and doll clothing for sick children you can visit the volunteer page of their website to find out how to get started right away. You can find doll and doll clothing patterns posted on the Feel Better Friends Pinterest boards. If you are crafty please consider helping this wonderful charity out.

Little Dove 

Little dove I love you so,

but I know you had to go. 

So spread your wings 

and fly my love, soar above

the world my dove. 

Paint the sky in indigo,

let your gracegul colors

flow, and I'll search 

the sky for your rainbow.

She's In The Sun, The Wind, The Rain Poem

It is painful to lose a loved one. Whether it is a baby you are carrying, a child or a mother or friend, the death of someone special is almost too much to bear in some cases. I believe that when our love ones pass over they are waiting for us to join them one day, just as we are waiting to see them again. Until then their spirit visits us, reminding us that they are there, especially when we need comfort.

I hope this poem will also offer you some comfort. You can find this poem (as well as the He's In the Rain version) and my other sympathy poems for sale in my poetry store. Feel free to print out this poem for your own personal use or share it on your blog or social media sites. As long as my name remains on the poem I have no problem with it being shared.
