Dearest Mommy,
When you wonder the meaning of life and love
Know that I am with you
Close your eyes
and feel me kissing you
In the gentle breeze across you cheek
When you begin to doubt that you shall ever see
me again
Quiet your mind and hear me
I am in the whisper of the heavens
Speaking of your love
When
you lose your identity
When you question who you are and where you are going
Open your heart and see me
I
am the twinkle in the stars smiling down upon you
Lighting the path for your journey
When you awaken each morning
not remembering your dreams
But feeling content and serene
Know that I was with you
Filling your nights
with thoughts of me
When you linger in the remnant pain
Wholeness seeming so unfamiliar
Think of me
Know
that I am with you
Touching you through shared tears of a gentle friend
Easing the pain
As the sunrise illuminates
the desert sky
In that breathtaking brilliance, awaken your spirit
Think of our time together, all too brief,
but ever brilliant
When you were certain of us together
When you were certain of your destiny
Know that
God created that moment in time
Just for us
I am with you always.
A Baby's Secret
(Author Unknown)
I'm just a little fellow,
Who didn't quite make it there;
I went
straight to be with Jesus
And I'm waiting for you here.
Don't you fret about me, Mommy,
I'm one of God's
lambs most blessed.
I'd have loved to have stayed there with you,
But the Shepherd knows what's best.
Many
dwelling here where I live
Waited years to enter in,
Struggled through a world of sorrow,
And their lives were
marked with sin.
So sweet Mommy, don't be sad,
Wipe those tears and chase that gloom.
I went straight
to be with Jesus
From my lovely mother's womb.
Thank you for the life you gave me,
It was brief but don't
complain.
I have all of Heaven's glory,
Suffered none of this earth's pain.
Thank you for the name you
gave me,
I'd have loved to have brought it fame;
But if I'd lingered in earth's shadows,
Might have instead
brought it shame.
Daddy gave me something for you,
It's our secret Mommy Dear.
Pressed tight against
my forehead,
Whispered into my tiny ear.
I'll be waiting for you, Mommy,
You and Daddy, and my big sisters;
I'll be with you then forever,
Then I'll give you Daddy's kiss.
Love,
Amaris

Lord, today I sent my baby to you
Please give him wings and let him fly
He's new at this, so take it slow
Teach
him how to soar the skies.
I'll miss him dearly,
And I'll never know his smile
But you need him and now he's
yours
He was mine for just a short while.
He'll never know pain
And he'll never know fear
For I know
that you will always keep him near
And now . . .
I close my eyes to say good bye
And watch him fly away
to you
Please keep him Lord, and love him until
I get my wings and meet the son I never knew.
Dear Mommy & Daddy...
I did not die young.
I lived my span of life,
Within your body
And within
your love.
There are many
Who have lived long lives
And who have not been loved as me.
If
you would, honor me
Then speak my name
And number me among your family.
If you would, honor me
Then
strive to live in love
For in that love, I live.
Never, ever doubt
That we will meet again.
Until
that happy day,
I will grow with God
And wait for you.
by Christy Kennealy
Angel Wings
A precious angel slipped away, no one heard a cry.
No time for Dad and Mommy to sing me lullabies.
My time with you was much too short. I had to leave too soon,
But love had joined us as I grew inside my Mommy's
womb.
It wove it's way within our hearts, in all our hopes and dreams,
Until the very purest love became my tiny
wings.
Although I could not stay with you, I knew right from the start,
That once you felt your angel's love, you'd
keep me in your hearts.
I'm just a little angel but my time was not in vain.
As dark clouds that surround you give
way unto the sun,
My precious parents you will see that any heart will sing,
If only for a moment it is brushed
by angel wings.
