| Poetry in memory of all sids children please visit www.sidsfamilies.com My Heart is a Locket... My Heart holds Golden Memories of You Its a Golden Rimmed Locket Linked by a Golden Chain of Much Treasured Thoughts Safely Secure For all of time all of them mine When you use the key to open my heart There you'll see An Image of My Sweet Angel Child Lent to me for just a while. Though I know You Forever Sleep And with tears of Sorrow I begin to Weep Then I just close my eyes and My Angel I Visualize And I can see and feel You did not leave Your soul is Here on Earth Guiding Me And In the Clouds your Flying Free. Written by Sylvie in late 2002 |
| The Cord We are connected, My child and I, by An invisible cord Not seen by the eye. It's not like the cord That connects us 'til birth This cord can't be seen By any on Earth. This cord does it's work Right from the start. It binds us together Attached to my heart. I know that it's there Though no one can see The invisible cord From my child to me. The strength of this cord Is hard to describe. It can't be destroyed It can't be denied. It's stronger than any cord Man could create It withstands the test Can hold any weight. And though you are gone, Though you're not here with me, The cord is still there But no one can see. It pulls at my heart I am bruised... I am sore, But this cord is my lifeline As never before. I am thankful that God Connects us this way A mother and child Death can't take it away! Author Unknown |
| Baby Castle In a baby castle just beyond my eye, my baby plays with angel toys that money cannot buy. Who am I to wish him back in to this world of strife? No, play on my baby, you have eternal life. At night when all is silent and sleep forsakes my eyes, I'll hear his tiny footsteps come running to my side. His little hands caress me so tenderly and sweet, I'll breathe a prayer and close my eyes, and embrace him in my sleep. Now I have a treasure that I rate above all other. In have known true glory; I am still his mother. |
| But A Moment You'll always be my child-I think of you each day, Even though you must remain so very far away. A love as strong as this, I've never felt before; But you had to go away-up through heaven's door. You'll never have to suffer, or feel pain or hate, just peace and love and happiness- God has given you this fate. I hope that you can feel just how much I care; And, When my days are over, in a flash-I will be there. Pure unbounding joy! We'll never have to part. You'll be right by my side-And not just in my heart. But, until that day, when my dream is real- I think I understand, just how I should feel... "Mom, I am fine!" this must be what you would say- "Please don't be so sad, we'll meet again one day: I'm with God above - so don't cry for me, Our parting is but a moment compared to eternity." |
