Jacob Dear-A Mothers Love

Jacob dear you are still here
Living in my heart
With every beat, the memory
Of you held in my arms

The day we met although short lived
It's you I still adore
But who am I to question why
God needed you more 

As surly as I live we'll meet again
On the other side
But until then I will keep you in
Both my heart and mind

Lovely verse Mike, it must be an unbearable thing for a mother to have to go through. Tom
