Simple Treasures |
By Marilyn Dunn |
You were a part of us and we knew a life was there
We would wonder are you a boy or girl? Would you have hair? I reflect back on the memories of what I felt inside Were you growing? Was that a flutter? Were your eyes open wide? Now you are here, but not as we planned. Our dreams have been shattered as we touch your little hand. Your tiny feet, your sleeping face, We know you’re in a special place. Your peaceful look, your little nose God cradles you in sweet repose. But we have these gifts to hold close to heart, And we will always have the memories of which you are a part. You were a part of us and we knew a life was there, We thank you for these simple treasures You have placed within our care. |
