One Who Knows The Pain

All Family Members Longed Remembered . . . With the many losses we’ve experienced (from one freakin' accident), my heart bleeds; my body screams out from the abuse of pain; my eyes continuously weeps from running tears. Knowingly, no comforting words can soothe that aching pain - at the moment in time. I can only recall the brokenness I felt when saying to HIM, “Creator, why me?” “Why, why, me!” Rest in Peace All You Beautiful Angels / You’ve got your wings - so fly high!

Book Excerpt

Not a Blueprint: It's the Shoe Prints That Matter

So, through its string of heartfelt words, I gift my poem: My Little Angel.

My Little Angel, you’re gone now
Gone to a place where other Angels will show you the ropes
Learn all you can from ’em to quickly earn your wings
Sure, this old world was a destructive place to have lived
But you’re free, as free as an eagle, the sky, the moon, and the sun
No more worries, no more fighting the toxic diseases . . .

And all those ugly things that living here does to one

My Little Angel, you’re starting life freshly anew
You have an eternal life and such a glorious life
You’re back home, from whence He sent you to me
When we were introduced, I was known as a Mommy figure
I named you, raised you, and gave you all my love
Mommies don’t really know it all, but I did the best I knew

My Little Angel, now that you’re back home, remember
I’ll always embrace your existence on this earth and cherish
its memories
I couldn’t have prayed for a greater child than you
Our paths have parted, but that which we shared lives forever

My Little Angel, life on earth doesn’t remain the same
Your life was short-lived, and that gave us such little time to
grow

For now, I’ll learn to be brave and begin to relive

‘Cause I know we’ll reunite in the Hereafter
My Little Angel, just know when I get there, our bond shall
forge again . . .
