Notes About The Poem

Written 1st January 2026

Our Festive Star

A fantastical year is wished the star
Sat on the festive tree, and in our hearts
You'll be remembered as long as we’re here
For the magic that to us would appear.

Our mother, our angel you'll always be
There is no other as lovely as thee
Your care and kindness was never undone
From the first moments our lives begun.

There's a wondrous light, that always beams bright
Gleaming in our hearts by day and by night
Not a day goes by without thoughts of you
Mother, our angel, your love sees us through.

May your time in heaven stay glorious
One day we'll be there to join the chorus
Of angels singing, songs of peace and love
Won't that be wonderful for each of us.

Us sisters wish love and peace evermore
In the room God saved for you on His shore.

In the midst of sorrow, your poem rises, lifting its voice to the heavens, whispering of hope, especially in the promise of reuniting with the mother in a world of light and love. Sending you my warmest wishes, dear Beryl.
