WHEN MORNING CAME


I remember the loss even now.
It still tugs at my hearts core.
I couldn't believe somehow,
You weren't with us anymore.

When I got that aweful call.
The voice said,you had died.
To the floor,I would fall.
Many tears,that I've cried.

You were only twenty-seven.
With a whole life left to live.
You took with you to heaven,
A precious little gift.

Your boy's are doing good.
Altough,they miss you so.
I know,you knew they would.
It's something mothers know.

They talk to you at times,
When they think no ones around.
They don't want us to see them cry.
For you their love abounds.

We all could learn something good,
From your tiny little men.
If we love each other as we should,
Our love would have no end.

So as I bring this to an end.
This story was hard to tell.
My sister-in-law and my friend.
This was for Gennell.

In Memory of: Gennell Osborn: 3/26/67
4/29/94


------------------


When we give of ourselves
whole heartedly,it comes
back around ten fold.

A heartfelt tribute. I'm sorry for your loss, and more so for her little boys.
