Why So Young

Our little angel who left us way to soon,
all our love for you would have reached the moon.

Mckayla Ryann Marie,we would have loved to see your smile,
touched your tiny hands and heard your little cry.

Your mommy would have loved you more than you will ever know,
the only thing that she could do,is say goodbye and let her go.

We know you will be watching us from heaven up above,
and we will all be sending you our prayers and our love's.

I't wasn't fair you had to leave without seeing your precious face,
and not to get the chance,to feel your warm embrace.


                     You will never be forgotten,
                           and always be loved.

                             LOVE GRANDMA!

A beautiful tribute to your granddaughter McKayla... God does things for reasons that we may not be able to understand in our limited human existence. I can feel all the love just emanating from your every word and I am sorry for your loss. Thanks so much for sharing and for your taking the time to read and comment on my works~Mary

Not exactly sure about this was it a miscarriage or you were not able to see her for some reason or another. Keep writing. Sara
