I wrote this poem in memory of our son on the
occasion of what would have been his first birthday on May 25, 1991 when I
was expecting our second child. (RH) You were such a handsome little man,
Full of personality and charm
We loved you so much - even before
they put you in our arms.
You were our special baby boy.
We loved being Mommy and Daddy
That's why when God chose to take you Home
It hurt us all so badly.
We know He had His reasons,
and it comforts us to know,
that you are up in Heaven,
smiling down on us below.
You've got your first birthday coming up,
and we have a special gift for you,
but we're not sure with what to wrap it,
should we use pink or blue?
That's right, our precious first born child,
A brother or sister for you.
It won't be here for quite some time,
but we wanted to let you know.
And to tell you Happy Birthday
to the son that we love so!
Happy Birthday Zack, We Love You
Mommy and Daddy
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
There is some love that will not go away
You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
