I watched silently
as she sang him his song.
The moment he closed his eyes,
I knew that he's gone.

And there he was,
standing next to his mother.
Looking sad and forlorn
as he tried to touch her.

Gently,I took his
little hand in mine.
And tried to comfort
those eyes that were about to cry.

"You see my child,
God needs you right now.
So come with me,
Soon an angel you'll be."

Looking sadly at me,
he gave a little nod.
"Goodbye Mummy..",he said.
"I'm going to miss you a lot."

This little child,
With eyes shining bright.
Gave my hand a little tug,
As I stood silently by his side.

I gazed at his mother,
And wondered what she had done.
To deserve this sadness and pain,
of being apart from her little one.

Her tears had ceased,
But her heart would never stop crying.
For when I took her little boy,
It was not relief but sadness that I bring.

I made a decision right then
and I've never regretted it.
Nothing beats more than
hearing the mother's cry of joy,
When I gave her back her little boy.

He would be God's angel someday.
But for now,
he's just mummy's little angel.
