Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

LIGHT ONE CANDLE

James Nelson

In memory of David Danielson Nelson

Light one candle, take my hand.
Move closer to each other,
All who so want to smile again.
In this blessed time of year,
With your sorrow and tears,
Come together to remember and to
light one candle.
The light is for strength to face,
The pain welled up inside.
The light reminds us of shattered
dreams,
Not to be denied.
The light is for courage to beckon,
Others to our side,
For every tear we’ve cried…We light
one candle.
We all know the reason,
That we value so this flame,
To remember every name.
And a promise made that,
In our hearts forever they’ll remain.
Out of love we came to light one
candle.
