A Father and Son's Final Journey
I wish you sweet sleep now, my little ones
let the stars and the moon be your light,
take comfort - your pain is now over
as you rest in God's care tonight.
Sleep now my two precious little ones
take comfort to know someone cared,
and searched until truth stood before her
never wanting to leave you out there.
Sleep now my two precious little ones
your 9 and 6 years went by fast,
three homes you had known while still living
it pains us that this be your last.
But sleep now my two precious little ones
for in our hearts your sad tale will live on,
of a father and son's final journey
for a home where they hoped to belong.
Sleep now, the darkness is falling
as the rain falls like tears from the skies,
white flowers will blossom each springtime
to honor your two precious lives.
