Dear Mother
The baby words that I could speak
before I left you the other day
Were sweet to you, yet with those words
I cannot say what I want to say.
My spirit, grown as it was before,
Would seek you now...to ease your pain.
Oh, Mother, if you could but know
My happiness, your grief would wane.
When I awoke the other day
it was like morning in my room...
And sunrise colors blended there
like from a great eternal loom.
I looked for you and daddy too...
But the angels came around my bed...
And then a Man who shone so bright...
He picked me up and hugged me tight.
He took me with Him in His arms...
and people cried and touched my hair...
And squeezed my hands and kissed my cheeks...
They were so glad to see me there.
I live now in a heavenly place...
more beautiful than all the earth...
Even the best and happiest place
where I lived with you, ever since my birth.
Here I shall always hear kind words...
And never fall and skin my knees...
Or have a fever of a cold...
And never, never will grow old.
And never will I feel a fear
or have bad dreams in the dark of night...
Or cry with longing, hurt or shame...
or be heart-broken, or lose my sight.
But always abide in warmth and love...
That's all there is here up above...
Yet, that was all I knew with you...
and I want you to know this too
That even as my life was short...
Your gift to me was not in vain...
Oh, Mother, it is hard to learn...
that Glory hides behind our pain!

Tiny Angel.
Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook her head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so".
