Daddy please don't look so sad,
Momma please don't cry,
Cause I am in the arms of Jesus and
He sings me lullabies.
Please try not to question God,
Don't think He is unkind.
Don't think He sent me to you,
And then He changed His mind.
You see, I am a Special Child,
And I am needed up above,
I'm the special gift you gave Him,
The product of your love.
I'll always be there with you,
And watch the sky at night
Find the brightest star that's gleaming,
That's my halo's brilliant light
You'll see me in the morning frost,
That mists your windowpane.
That's me, in the summer showers,
I'll be dancing in the rain.
When you feel a gentle breeze,
From a gentle wind that blows,
That's me, I'll be there, Planting a kiss on your nose.
When you see a child playing,
And your heart feels a little tug,
That's me, I'll be there, giving your heart a hug.
So, daddy, please don't look so sad,
Mommy don't you cry.
I'm in the arms of Jesus,
and He sings me lullabies.

I'll throw away the faded ones
and leave fresh ones instead.
I'll stand above the place you lay,
placed there a year ago today.
And once again my heart will break,
and unchecked tears will flow.
With gentle fingers I'll caress,
your name carved in stone.
Then brush away the fallen leaves,
November winds have blown.
I'll dry my eyes, I'll say a prayer, and as I raise my head, Another grieving mother has just tucked her child in bed.

It takes us back to brighter years,
to happier sunlit days and to precious
moments that will be with us always.
And these fond recollections
are treasured in the heart
to bring us always close to those
from whom we had to part.
There is a bridge of memories
from earth to Heaven above
It keeps our dear ones near us
It's the bridge that we call love.

Children's voices fill the air,
Life and laughter ring,
Across the hills of Heaven,
Small, sweet voices sing.
Gone to be with Jesus,
Each little girl and boy,
Now run and play as never before,
In the land of eternal joy.
Never to know another tear,
Or face another pain;
What was a senseless loss on earth,
Has now become Heaven's gain.
While Heaven is much sweeter,
In your heart you'll not be alone;
God filled it with menories of laughter and love,
Of that child who has now gone home.

When you wonder
the meaning of life and love,
Know that I am with you
Close your eyes and feel me kissing you
in the gentle breeze across your cheek.
When you begin to doubt
that you shall ever see me again,
Quiet your mind and hear me,
I am in the whisper of the heavens,
Speaking of your love.
When you lose your identity,
When you question who you are,Where you are going...
Open your heart and see me,
I am the twinkle of the stars
Smiling down upon you...
Lighting the path for your journey.
When you awaken each morning,
Not remembering your dreams
But feeling content and serene,
Know that I was with you,
Filling your nights with thoughts of me.
When you linger in the remnant pain,
Wholeness seeming so unfamiliar,
Think of me.
Know that I am with you
Touching you through the shared tears
Of a gentle friend easing the pain.
As the sunrise illuminates the desert sky,
As that breathtaking brilliance
awakens your spirit,
Think of our time together...
All too brief...but ever brilliant.
When you are certain of us together,
When you are certain of your destiny,
Know that God created that moment in time
Just for us.
I am with you always.

No words I write can ever say,
How much I miss you everyday.
As time goes by the loneliness grows,
How I miss you...nobody knows.
I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name.
But all I have are memories,
And a photo in frame.
No one see's me weep.
But the love I have for you,
Is in my heart and mine to keep.
I never stopped loving you,
I don't think I ever will.
Deep inside my heart,
You are with me still.
Heartaches this world are many,
But mine is worse than any.
My heart still aches as I whisper low,
"I need you....and miss you so."
The things we feel so deeply,
Are often the hardest things to say.
But I just can't keep quite anymore,
So I'll tell you anyway.
There is a place in my heart,
That no one can fill.
I love you...and I always will.

Starlight, Star bright...
First star I see tonight...
Wish I may...Wish I might...
Have this wish I wish tonight...
I wish to have my child again,
I wish a thousand hugs and kisses,
All over your sweet face.
I wish a million "I Love You's"
I wish to hold on so tight,
and never let go.
I wish just one more touch of that Little face.
I wish just one more crumpled dandilion,
Given to me with pride.
I wish another messy room,
To let me know you're still here.
I wish another home-made gift,
An ash tray I will somehow use.
I wish just one more chocolate smudge,
Upon the bathroom wall.
I wish another kool-aid spill,
That will take a thousand napkins.
I wish to have my child again.

As I look up into the beautiful sky
I can only ask myself one more time--why
Of course people tell me it was your time
But they don't know what it's like
to pretend to be fine
To live each day with the hurt and pain
From deep inside you don't know where it came
They don't know how it feels to have to live
Without the child who had so much to give
To go on and on and never know why
I can't understand no matter how hard I try
I try to be patient and not get mad
But of course I'll always be sad
There is such a void and emptiness inside
You can't imagine how much I've cried
And I know if I really knew why you had to leave
You still wouldn't be here
and I'd still be bereaved

To us you will exist
in the flowers
in the trees
and all things of nature
God has given us.
You are now in a world
of peace and happiness forever.
Pray for us as we pray for you,
and somewhere sometime
we will join.
