A CHILD IS BORN

A CHILD IS BORN

Together forever vows were spoken...

Fifty years together counting stars...

One star for a blessing...

One star for a tear...

One star for hearts held dear...

Five children they made...

Three grand children would arrive...

A great grand baby is on the way...

They count the stars one by one...

Not a blessing...

Not a tear...

Hearts always held so dear...

One by one the stars lose their shine...

Only one star still remains in the wide night sky...

She in her hospital bed with him by her side...

A glimmer of hope...

She has awoken just long enough to say goodbye...

The last star has died...

A child is born...

Hugs...

Hello Sis Cherie...

Every minute someone dies and someone is born somewhere in the world...

I wonder if the person who died at the same time that a baby is born...

Are they connected somehow?

Could they be?

Thank you for your comment and support! 

Love n Hugs

My Dear Sweet Sparrowsong,

.

The Mother of this progeny, has gently sailed away

For fifty years she was by his side, now in the ground she ever lays

But on the night she went to Heaven, a child of hers was born

The offspring of her Granddaughter, who now is so forlorn

.

Oh Grandma I'll teach her all about you, your life will never fade

She'll learn how you loved your family, and the sacrifices made

In time she'll get to know you, and feel the power of your love

As it enters in her little soul, from the Heavens up above

.

Hugs, Peace and Love,

Larry xxx

Hello Larry...

There's a time to be born and a time to die...

There's a reason for everything under the sun...

The minute we're born someone dies...

Alot happens in sixty seconds...

We don't usually consider the place we take...

I know there are angels above and here too...

When we are replaced by a new life being could we be their angel too?

Thank you for your comment and support! 

Hugs, Peace and Love
