The Love I Have For Alice

Far to beautiful to ever hide Reflected in these tear filled eyes Who am I to ever deny The love I have for Alice You lay still the day you were born With the angel wings you adorned In heaven they rejoice yet here I morn Over the love I have for Alice Inside of this mothers heart Is where the memories of you are With every beat it leaves a mark Of the love I have for Alice Eternal flame the sweetest fire Burning true this hearts desire Nothing for me is any higher, than The love I have for Alice I have a poet friend who's baby Alice was sadly still born...

I read this earlier, Mike. Having buried a child after living only 2 days, I usually do not comment on these kinds of poems. Too painful. You did an excellent job on an extremely sad subject. A wonderful tribute for a dear friend. You have a beautiful heart!

This is more than a poetic gift and tribute, it is a piece of your tender heart Mike. It is very moving and beautiful! I am sure it meant a lot to her. 7 ; )
