Angels remembered

Sorrow walks us through the lonely rivers

                                           we endure everyday

Never to let us rest without the memories

                                           of what could have been

That smile we carry hides the frown inside

                                           a heart that truly cared

But we must also remember the warmth

                                           shed from the closeness shared

We also know their legacy shall survive

                                           upon our lips for all of eternity

Let your soul be humbled with his grace

                                           that Bree sits at the Lords side

Pain does not let go of its terrible grasp

                                           when it's a child of our own

They will be beside you every moment

                                           feeling the tears of heavens rain

Whisper your "I love you's" to the wind

                                           and know your 'lil one catches them all

Author notes

I too lost a child. A 18 yr old son. I'm am sorry for your loss, I truely am. Please take these words with ease and stride, yes the pain is always there and yes it is a different kind of pain like no other. But do know Lil Bree is with our father in heaven. And we will someday get to see them again. untill then, remember the joy  and good times and never let go. God bless my friend and your daughter...GETS
