I pray thee, lift this child on angels wings and heal the hearts this sadness brings help these parents hearts to heal through this pain that they now feel. Cradle this precious child with your love as you take him home to heaven above..... {Mark and Davonna, my heart and soul weeps with yours...... I am here my friends..........} If I have touched one heart through my words, then I have acheived my dream... [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (09-18-2002 02:46 PM).] |

wow...this one did make me cry. As a parent, I think the very hardest thing in this world would be to lose your precious child. I cannot imagine the grief & pain that the parents go through. This poem was beautiful, I hope it brings some comfort to your friends during this sad time for them. God Bless... BlueEyes |

He, who has the biggest heart causes from a divine earth to depart An innocent glee of childhood fashioned from branch of gopherwood and there, by His side, shall he keep them safe and warm their souls preparing their wings on Heaven's lathe. For us, it is the greatest loss when a child's life has tremendous cost He, as shepherd, shall this soul be led As God kisses his cheek and strokes his head. ~sigh~ I am so sorry for this, Donna, that this had to happen this way. Give hugs generously, and give love when pain is abundant. jeff |

It is so difficult to know what to say... perhaps that is why we fold our hands and bow our heads... and say a prayer... |

Donna - A lovely prayer that has already been answered. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Donna, I read this earlier today and in all honesty, couldn't find adequate words to not only express the loveliness of your poem, but my prayers for all. God bless each of you. |

My heart goes out to them. Howl at the stars, whisper when you're sleeping, I'll be there to hold you, I'll be there to stop the chills and all the weeping. |

Donna, we never understand why God takes a child so young from our lives...We can only try to have faith that He has taken the child home..... I know their grief is great at this moment and I hope the best for them, for their recovery from this loss... Thank you for expressing to them what we all feel as well... |

You write with such fluency and so tendly from the heart. Your name suits you well gentle one... I like that new pic too. |
