Dear Child

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2006 with permission of the Author.

Dear child, if you are reading this
Then you know
I have passed away

Dear child, please forgive me
For there are so many things
I wanted to say

Dear child, I should have told you
I love you every day
It is amazing the perspective you get
When you are about to pass away

Dear child, I want you to know
That I will always be with you
And whatever hardship lies in your way
Know that Mommy is watching over you
Each and every day

Dear Child, please try not to be upset with me
I have made arrangements so that
You will have someone loving you constantly

Dear child, it seems God
Had a different plan for me
I love you forever
My baby you will always be
