"I'm very sorry about your loss i hope this poem helps you out like it did me when i went through something similar. I'm just a little baby who didn't quite make it there; I went straight to be with Jesus but I'm waiting for you here. Don't you fret about me mommy I'm of all God's most blessed I'd have loved to stay there with you but Heavenly Father knows what's best. Many who dwell here where I live waited years to enter in, they struggled through a world of sorrow and their lives were marred with sin. So sweet mommy don't be sad, wipe those tears and chase the gloom, I went straight to be with Jesus, from my lovely mothers womb. Thank you for the life you gave me, it was brief but don't complain; I have all of heaven's glory suffering none of the world's pain. Thank you for the name you gave me, I'm thankful for all you've done. I'll be waiting here for you in heaven up above. I would have loved to stay with you, And lived life by your side, But the Lord has called me home, I know it's hard to understand why. Thank you mommy for making me, You made me out of love, I can't wait for the day I see you again So you can see what I've become. I'm an angel here in heaven, The Lord's here by my side, He wants me to let you know He's sorry he made you cry. He has a plan for me up here, And a plan for you here too, Someday we'll be together again, And this I know is true. "
