For parents who lost too soon
Hi Mummy and Daddy, I'm sorry I left you today. It wasn't because of anything you did, Or anything that you said. It wasn't that I didn't feel all of your love, Or the warmth that flooded my heart, As I lay in your tummy, Mummy, so safe and so snug, Even though we now have to part.
Your love draped me softly in bright rainbow light, And made me just flutter in glee. I felt rainbow love every time I heard your voices, Or you sang a sweet song just for me.
When you cuddled me close from the outside in, Those heart hugs were simply the best. And I felt every one of them deep in my soul, As I lay there in quiet and rest.
Daddy, your deep voice would make me chuckle, Would I sound the same as you if I were a boy? Or Mummy, would I be as gentle as you, And bring you such comfort and joy, if a girl?
I hope you're not sad that I had to go on, It just wasn't my time to stay. As the machines beeped loud and signalled my demise, I know my heart will forever be beating with yours, Though my body has now faded away.
It wasn't quite strong enough to stay, But please don't be sad, my sweet Mummy and Daddy, I'm a love you will never forget. For you are with me, and I am with you, In the brilliant morning rays and the soft evening dew. I'll hold you forever in bright rainbow light, My Mummy and Daddy, I love you.
