A lifetime lived in a few short years
Brought us so much laughter, joy and finally tears.
The years we shared with you were wonderful,
For the memories we cherish, we are grateful.
A reminder left behind, of your face as you smiled.
Our precious gift of life, our beautiful child,
As we bade you farewell with a hug and a kiss,
We set your free, my son; oh, you, we will miss.
We need not question God's destined plan.
We thank him for the child, who grew to be a fine young man.
