BB I do not want to intrude but I cannot have you being unhappy either. I understand that there is no timeline on mourning, it is different for each of us. If you ever want to chat let me know I might drive you bonkers but I sense that sometimes you need to get things off your chest in confidence otherwise things get heavy on your shoulders. Once you have had a special friend, it is difficult especially when the bond was tight and so long lived. a b c d e f Vendler, Helen (Winter 2000).

Although the bible does not refer to robin, sign of an angel, it does refer to birds in general as one of God’s most blessed creatures. For example, in Psalm 50 and 104, the birds of the air are referenced in both a literal and symbolic way. And, in a similar fashion, Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew clarifies just how much His Heavenly Father values the birds of the air. Out in the garden she would slowly go to put out feed and replenish the water bowl.

Nothing sings Spring like a Robin, and nothing pleases me more than a Robin-rich season. Whether celebrating a first sighting, laughing over their antics as they try to pull worms from half-frozen ground, or luxuriating in their melodious song at sunrise and sunset, there’s something about their comfortable presence that evokes a sense of home.

Hamish Whyte is a Scottish poet who has published pamphlets and full collections, as well as editing several anthologies. He also runs Mariscat Press. My mum was always worried about my psychic work. Her grandmother was a very special lady, who had gifts (probably where my cousin and I get it from). However her gifts frightened my mum to death (although she loved her grandmother dearly) so when I went the same way. Ooh dear shall we say. Mother was not happy. A few days after she passed, I went to an open demonstration with a medium who I did not know. I got a message through from my mum saying that she was okay and that she now understood and everything had turned full circle for her and I received the confirmation from her that I had so sought in life that she was okay with it. What are the chances of that happening. No one in the group knew this particular medium well. So I do believe in unusual events. You are sympatico as I have said before. You see and feel far more than you give yourself credit for. Does not mean that you want to advertise them, but just to reassure you that everything is okay, you are not losing it, how can anything that be done in love ever hurt you. Besides the inner voice when you learn to listen to it will never lead you astray. You cannot get away from that voice.

Often, before she leaves for work, she stand outside to watch the sun catch on the white-frosted plants, searching for the robin's red breast. A spot of color against the stark morning. Sometimes, while she watches it flutter, she feels a tugging inside her womb, as if her daughter is responding to its song, anxious to breach the membrane between her mother's body and the outside world. Larks and nightingales play prominent roles in poetry, but robins have been celebrated as well. A member of the Thrush family, American Robins ( Turdus migratorius) received their common name because of their resemblance to the British Robin ( Erithacus rubecula), a smaller bird in the Chat family. Both birds are known for their pretty red breasts, and both are regarded with affection. The robin was voted as Britain's (unofficial) National Bird in 1960, and again in 2015. So, what is it about this little bird that still continues to capture the imagination, and hearts of people? Is it because, for such a tiny bird, it symbolises so much? Even though I did not know her, Tricia would want to be remembered, she would want your love, but the greatest compliment you could give to her is live your life for you and for her.The robin bird stands as a symbol of change or a shift to the beautiful and vibrant spring season after a dull and harsh winter. Since it is a harbinger of ethereal beauty many beautiful poetries about robin have been created. 1. What Robin Told
