To Our Special Angel Baby

You were so perfect; the angels couldn’t wait to meet you

God took your tiny hand

For reasons only He can understand

So we’ll let you play

But please promise you’ll watch over us every day

You fought on for so long

Our undying love for you kept us strong

Although our arms are empty, in our hearts we hold you tight

Looking for the brightest star each night

One day far, far away we will see you again

But today please help us live with our pain

Day by day ease our sorrow

Give us new strength for tomorrow

So for now, shine on, our angel of love

We trust you’ll be safe with God up above.

Honor will be forever with us - never forgotten.
