My Sweet Amy

START The first time they laid you in my arms you were so small and precious, the perfect gift from above and in an instant I fell in love. From a girl to a woman I would watch you grow, it was the perfect plan you know. But didn't realize how it would happen so fast, I just wish that I could go back and relive the past. For the plan I once had would no longer be, when God called you home I felt so all alone. The day we had to part, left a big gaping hole in my heart. Now every day I wake and cry, for I never had the chance to say good bye. Then I think of your laugh and smile and know I will see them again in a short while. I often speak your name, now all I have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake with which I shall never part, God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart. I will miss you and think of you with love And know you are with our love ones above. Rest in Peace Love Mom END

It is nice that you are going back and forth between the sad, and the great things that can be happening. This is an optimistic poem that shows a glimmer of hope out of grief.
