The Cry of An Angel

THE CRY OF AN ANGEL I know dear God he is with you, I realize he was spoken for, I know that it was best for him, But why please God explain to me? An untouched soul, A heart so pure, A perfect face, And so much more. I loved him from my core. He cried just once and then prepared, To meet his end , but not the end, For from above God called his name, And so his little soul did soar, Above the clouds, and furthermore, I pray and almost feel, That he is cradled in Your arms, And I praise You with psalms. But he left at such a pace, Departing from the human race, That my faith I sometimes question, That it was he, And not me, You chose. I have but one request, My heart is sore, I did adore, That baby boy, Please God, grant me another angel.

Dear Jennifer. Hi. Oh my goodness. I am so sorry for this true to life unthinkable loss. There are no words for such a loss. However you most eloquently emotionally and lovingly spoke with your heart and soul. The great losses and dark times make beautiful and meaningful poetry. Hold this entry close and dear. May you have a hint of peace. Blessings and Peace now and always Jennifer. (smile)

It was very hard coming to terms with this tragedy in my life Line, but God did answer my prayer and 18 months later i was pregnant with my beautiful son, now a young man, married with his own business. Stay well and safe my friend, Jennifer.

Hi Eve I know how you feel my heart was torn, but God answered my prayers - if you read my poem An answer to a Prayer, you will see how God heard my sorrow and my plea and granted it. Blessings and hugs Eve. Jennifer

Oh I'm so sorry Sunshine Smile, we have indeed suffered the same fate and it is heartbreaking but God loved us both enough to grant us both another healthy beautiful baby. We owe him praise eternally! Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Im so sad that this happened to you. I feel for you. Did you know that God hates death, and would never take a baby away from its mother? (1 Corinthians 15:26) (1 John 4:16)

Hi Susan, I prayed very hard after I lost my baby many years ago. My prayer was answered about a year and a half later when I fell pregnant with my son who is a young man now. My poem "An answer to a prayer" was by Gods grace. Thank-you for your comment, it meant a lot to me. xoxo

Sylvia my dear friend, I have only seen now how I very stupidly missed this lovely comment. I apologise profusely as you were from the start my fellow poet who encouraged me with the very first poem I posted. I miss your comments. Love and hugs for Christmas to you and yours. Jennifer.

Hi Kim, I never ever met my baby as I was still sleeping after my Caesar. He was transferred to the main Hospital in Johannesburg and died 5 days later. My parents were with him up until the end as I was very sick. Hugs.
