Catherine Hannel Poem
If we could have one lifetime wish, one dream come true.
We would pray to God, with all our hearts for yesterday and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back, we know because we tried.
And neither will a million tears, we know because we cried.
You left behind a broken heart, and happy memories too.
But we never wanted memories, we only wanted you.
To your resting place we go, the flowers are placed with care.
But no one knows the heartache, as we turn and leave you there.

Catherine Hannel Poem
Everyone you encounter, leaves something
behind. Some the treasure is obvious, others
it is not so easy to find.
One makes you laugh, another causes you tears
One's around a short time, another for years.
Some cause a laugh when you want to be sad,
Some stand beside you in good times and bad.
You never know what impact one is going to
make, be careful of the steps you take.
Walk into many lives and not out of many
Build until you think you have plenty.
When you think you don't need any more, build
one more take extra time like never before.
Hold a hand a little tighter,
Make someone else's world a little brighter.
Remember the one you might not have taken
the time to give a chance.
Could be lonely, your best friend, maybe
your romance.

Catherine Hannel Poem
I may never be famous, a hero, or be in a history book
Some people don't take the time to give me a second look
But I live my life as if each day were my last,
I teach others how to grow stronger from their past.
I take time for children that think no one will care-
No matter how busy I am, if anyone needs me I am there.
Open ears and willing to listen when someone needs to talk,
Carry another if they are too weak to walk.
Hope to teach what it is to give- maybe the power to live.
Volunteered for handicap, youth, nursing homes, hospitals to
Watching as I have helped others make their dreams come true.
Believe smiling is contagious- attempt to spread it each day
Giving myself gives me more in an unexplainable way.
My friends say I am the party and I give off a light
Even when things are not good for me- I say I am alright.
Love others good times and bad- smile even when I am sad.
I have learned the path for me is looking rather straight,
And when I die- Heaven will open the gate.
Always room for another angel- live for others not you-
I would be delighted if you would follow my path too.
