Angelic Melody

This Is for my late cousin, Melody Rose, and my cousin Sammy Joe. I love you both, more than words know. Never think...you are alone.

Close your eyes
and dream tonight
Mommy loves you
Sweet child of mine
Take my hand and hold it tight
Little cherub, dances with angels this life.
Our time was short,
A brief memory to store
beautiful baby forever more
Beautiful colored eyes
we will never see
Hush little angel,
you are safe to sleep
one brief glance, and the pain is so cold,
Gripping, consuming within a smothering hold.
Dance, frolic and play around,
Let mommy sing you a humble sound
hear the love of your family
Darling baby, in my dreams you will be.

Close your eyes,
sweet child of mine...
This ache will lessen with the river of time
I love you now forever more
wait for me at dreamlands shore
where we will laugh and grow and play
Time will never stop, or keep you away
Beautiful angle, of my heart
I have loved you from the start.
Close your eyes and you will be safe,
within my heart forever and a day.

no matter how short the time some loved ones are with us, we will have them in our hearts forever...
this is a beautiful tribute...noticed in last stanza...i think you meant "Beautiful angel"---
and those who have passed certainly must still hear the love of family.

Thank you Mr cilberto, that means alot I'm really glad you read this and thank you for your kind words. And yes I meant beautiful angel I can't type

Heartrending--and, yet, incredibly, reaffirming.
As far as I'm concerned, nothing further need be said--you've said it all, perceptively, passionately.
So sorry for your loss.

Thank you for your kind words. My cousin had it worse as her baby died in her arms. Mine didn't get to see the light of day...
but I do appreciate your condolences
