Forever Baby

She was there for his first She held his hand with his last The breath that was in between Seemed to be taken away so fast! Twenty-seven years later Justice Seems at hand Not God's judgment But the courts of this land. He took our little Ricky Without a second thought As horrible memories surface We all know it hurts a lot. Seeing him walk by With a smile from ear to ear Still haunts us all And it's been almost a year. Praying for this family Every night it seems to me Because I know they need God's help No matter what the outcome be. Beautiful little Ricky I hope your death is finally "solved" And I wish nothing but peace For ALL the families involved. You were here for a short while Now we think of you daily It's been twenty-seven years But you are our..."forever baby"
