You left me, in the wee hours of a morn <br />Tears were shed <br />Too many to count <br />My pillow drenched <br />My bed soaked <br /> <br />My heart empty <br />My soul aches <br />Promises never kept <br />I wept— <br /> <br />Lost I lingered <br />In death’s door <br />Till and angel came <br />You said, “I’m here <br /> <br />In every little boy’s <br />Giggle <br />In the warmth of the sun’s ray <br />In every impish behavior <br />On a crayon mark on a wall <br />Every spilled milk <br />When boys wolf call <br />Smile, mom… <br />You will always hear me <br />Near you <br />Listen with your heart <br /> <br />I am always near— <br />No more tears, <br />Mom <br />You know, I love you! ”<br /><br />Catherine Inscore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-little-lost-boy/
