Tears fall from my eyes,

As your tiny hands fall from mine.

A few days is all we had with you,

It seemed a full life time.


I dreamed how we’d played,

In the sun-snow and rain.

How you would grow into a man,

Making me proud everyday.


The dull sound of the alarm,

As doctors come rushing in.

Angels flying above you,

Heavenly children sing.


I see you leave your body,

And glance down at me.

There’s a sudden realisation,

No pain-your totally free.


Now my son in heaven,

Safe as safe can be.

Heavenly tears are falling,

From him-two-you-to me .
