Many dwelling here where I live waited years to enter in struggled through a world of sorrow and their lives were marred with sin. So sweet mommy don't you sorrow wipe those tears and chase the gloom, I went straight to Jesus's bosom from my lovely mothers 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 Earthling's pain. Thank you for the name you gave me I'd have loved to brought it fame but if I'd lingered in Earth's shadows might instead have brought in shame. Daddy gave me something for you it's our secret, mommy dear, pressed it tight against my forehead whispered in my tiny ear. I'll be waiting for you mommy- you and daddy, bud and sis I'll be with you then forever, and I'll give you daddy's kiss.

United States 10/15/2008 5:25:26 PM visitor I found this poem when I was 14 and thought it was beautiful so I kept it in a scrap book until I was 36 and my twin sons were still born. It was the poem I put in their funeral leaflet. Now at 50 I still think it's an amazing poem. It gave me great peace when I needed it.
