Annie as an Angel

The sunshine of your laughter and raindrops of small tears Your steps so soft and light Your blond curls and smiling eyes We didn’t want to let you go A mother and father's love for a child The time has come the moment to say goodbye Living without you we are slowly dying inside Like a leaf blown away by the wind Keep your smile on your face until we meet again little angel 16.01.2016 A-L Andresen :)

Hope this masterpiece is written just as a poetic expression and doesn't refer to an actual event for if it is real then is the worst form of tragedy, dear Anne-Lise! A seven!

Anne -Lise, through the tears that fall after reading this heartfelt write i do write my comment. The gentility of this write and the content are both deeply felt as one does read. This is something i shall never have to go through yet i know many couples do and as i read my heart does go out to them. One cannot help but be touched by these words Anne-Lise. A seven for each tear that does fall. Hugs....Vladislav. X

A personal loss, especially when one goes before we, leaves an indelible scar, good memories tied to loss. I pray I don't have to experience it. My heart goes out to anyone, and the poem moved me, personal am sure Anne Lise. Thomas

- As nurses in care we meet patients in the terminal stage, but it is absolutely terrible and heartbreaking when it comes to children - Strong experiences can pose tremendous personal burdens... even for a nurse - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
