'twas a Friday In October

‘Tis three years today Since you went away Oh darling Son of mine We had no inkling On that sunny day ‘Twas a Friday in October when you were called over for you ~ your time had come Too soon Too young My only Son Oh how we cried on the day you died Leaving such devastation For your loving wife Your son Your daughter And me darling boy Your dearest mum So as another year goes by The thought of you Brings a tear to my eye I hope and I pray I will see you some day In the meantime there is something I wanted to say Dearest Son I love you with every bit of my heart Watch over us Be with us I pray Give us the strength to carry on God Bless you my Son My only one From me your ever loving Mum Written 18th October 2022 for my Son my only one...

Ann, sorry for your loss. Loss of a child would be so hard, I think harder than a mate. Great loving tribute to your son. Many blessings my friend
