  IT HAS BEEN ELEVEN YEARS SINCE YOUR DEATH,
  BUT YOU ARE STILL LOVED BY THOSE YOU LEFT.
  YOUR LIFE WAS CUT SHORT AT THREE YEARS OLD,
  I CRIED ABOUT YOU WHEN I WAS TOLD.

  BUT GOD HAD OTHER PLANS ON HIS MIND,
  WHEN HE TOOK YOU AND LEFT US BEHIND.
  YOU ARE NOW A SPECIAL LITTLE ANGEL TO ME,
  I KNOW YOU WATCH OVER ME,WHERE EVER I MAY BE.

  I FEEL YOU ARE HAVING FUN UP THERE,
  WITH YOUR ANGEL WINGS YOU CAN FLY
  THROUGH HEAVEN'S AIR.
  I WILL STILL CONSIDER YOU MY GUARDIAN ANGEL
  FROM ABOVE,
  AND TO YOU MY SPECIAL NEPHEW,I SEND MY LOVE.

  KEEP WATCHING OVER ME DAY TO DAY,
  WHILE I REMEMBER YOU WHEN I PRAY.
  SO UNTIL THE DAY WE MEET UP ABOVE,
  PLEASE SEND ME DOWN SOME OF YOUR SPECIAL LOVE.

CATHY BOHANNAN

Cathy,

Firstly WELCOME TO PASSIONS....

Now, let me tell you that this is a fabulous starting post from you ... and I hope to read many from you...

I hope you enjoy your stay here....


regards,
sudhir.
P.S. now if you could avoid all CAPS poems, it would be more pleasing not that this capitalization takes away any essence from the poetic thoughts, but still...

HEY HEY HEY......Welcome there SIS....Ain't it great here?  Wonderful post for your first one but you knew this is the one I wanted you start with anyway.  I love this poem for many reasons, but most of all I know
that through this and through your heart.... that Christopher is smiling away and having a ball.  Big hugs to you sis.

Cathy, very warm welcomes to Passions. I know you'll love it here. It's so nice to meet the sis of a wonderful friend. The poem was so tender and full of love. Truly beautiful. May God bless you and keep you in the palm of his Hand.

This is the second of yours that I have read and had tears come to eye on them both.  You are a great poet, as your brother Mark is too.  Look forward to many more.  Welcome to Passions from me.
