I'Ll Never Forget

My little girl who lives beyond the stars 
I didn't get to know who you are it was all so 
bizarre.
It gave me the creeps.
As I held you in my warm arms you went to 
Your eternal sleep.
My heart broke in to pieces
As I choked out Felice.
All I could do was weep.
This hurt went deep.
I will never be the same.
My life with out you can I reclaim?
I may never be able to go asleep
I am thinking about my beautiful little baby girl 
Who now lives beyond the stars.
Oh! Baby, my heart will never forget how you 
Felt when you were in my arms I thought for
Me to keep.

This is a very sad poem, Bette. There is NO feeling like that feeling of losing a child. I know first hand. You just have to think that sometimes God keeps the really special ones for himself and try to live a good life so you can perhaps reunite on the other side.

Thank you very much for your kind words. I hope you are staying safe from covid. We lost three to it. The other 14 who were infected and sick I am thankful to God are all negative now. I am praying it stays that way. Glad to hear from you.

How heart wrenching when we lose something so so precious, WE are never the same again. The only comfort is in the knowledge that one day she will be the light that will descend to take you home. It happened when my dad was dying, his mom who died giving birth to him, came and get him, It was lovely to see the smile on his face, xo

Thank you so much for this warm comment. Sorry. I did not get back to you sooner. We lost three to covid and had 14 other family members infected. Including one of our daughters and our 8 month old grandbaby at the time. Every time she had to go to the hospital my heart went to my throat. I am thankful to God that everyone has now tested negative. I hope you and yours are staying safe. Thank you again for the visit.
