Many angels crowd full the rooms
of the nurseries up in Heaven
all with smiles, filled with happiness
no worries, no pain, no suffering!
Sadly, sometimes one leaves earth
before we are ready to let go
so when an Angel is called back
it leaves us with a void inside
soon filled with pain and sadness.
An angel, so innocent is unknowing
that an early arrival and demise
can cause such excrutiating pain
for a mother and father to be.
As a parent we must remember
through all our pain and heartache
our angel wasn't ready to fly in this world
so returning to Heaven was for the best.
God is a mighty and powerful man
He knows whats best for each of us
He even knows the pain we can endure
so until we're able, He stays at our side.
We must always remember no matter our pain
He knows whats best: as He oversees all life.
After awhile, I'd found peace with my Angel leaving
knowing she was delivered back into His arms.
No suffering for her as it could of been had she stayed
I'd rather took her place, but that isn't the way it works.
Still one day we will meet again, we will rejoice
and thats the day I revel in glourious glory!
Author notes
This is a hard thing to live with and hard forpeople to write about. You will find those that who do write of this have probally lost their own child. Those are the ones that will know this pain for sure. I lost mine. Rose

Your heartfelt words tells me you will be or are an excellent father. You understand they are on loan to us to care and love and though many forget, our reward is the love and joy they give to us! I believe that's what a gift is about. Thank you for the win. It was a hard thing to write, for I don't share my real life very much. But my angel is with me every step of my live, never forgotten. Good luck in your life and God bless. Rose

I'm so sorry for your little baby, I can -though I didn't suffer it- imagine what you went through. I also wrote or tried to write about this subject and it was painful.
I loved this poem so much, it was calm and tender. Your acceptance of the situation just added more beauty to it, just truely beautiful and full of blessings as peace.
May all angels like her lay in peace, flying around watched by God.
God bless, dear.
Much love
~Noor
