Another Poem to Ponder


Little Angels

When God calls little children

to dwell with him above,

We mortals sometimes question

the wisdom of His love.

For no heartache compares

with the death of one small child,

Who does so much to make our world

seem wonderful and mild.

Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold,

So He picks a rosebud, before it can grow old.

God knows how much we need them,

and so He takes but a few


To make the land of heaven

more beautiful to view.

Believing this is difficult

still somehow we must try,

The saddest word mankind knows

will always be "Goodbye.

"So when a little child departs,Numbered List

we who are left behind

Must realize God loves children,

angels are hard to find.

I am missing Tay Tay today. Hope that he knows that I think of him everyday. Why is it that when the weather turns cold, the emotions are that much closer to the surface? This is still so hard...

A poem to ponder


I'll Hold You in Heaven

From the very beginning I loved you,
As I made plans to hold you and rock you:
You were tiny and helpless as you lay in my womb,
But something went wrong and soon you were gone;
My young heart was broken, my tears fell like rain,
I'd never known such heartache and pain.

I wonder who you look like, me or your dad,
Do you have my smile and his eyes?
Would you have been big and tall or tiny and small?
We had dreams for you that reached to the skies.
It was long, long ago and I still miss you so,
Thanks to Jesus, I'll see you in heaven.


I'll hold you in heaven someday,When my trials on earth pass away;
The angels have rocked you, the Father watches over you,
I know you're waiting for me;I never could hold you or tell you "Goodbye",
But I'll hold you in heaven someday.

In loving memory of Darrell Keith and Melody Joy Taylor.
