While She Stood There and Laughed

He lay so peacefully 
Like a baby sound asleep
No color to his face
No color to his life

So helpless..

You remember him
Laughing, having fun
Like he always had 
Like we all had

Then you remember 

His cry for help
His struggle to breathe
His fighting to survive 
The water taking over 

While she stood there and laughed

I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
