A baby angel <br /> sits on His lap <br />As I cry myself to sleep <br />I wonder what my child <br /> would have been <br />One daughter six months old <br />Another child on the way <br /> suddenly gone <br />What would you have been <br />I can't help but feel the loss <br />My daughter always asks <br /> 'When will I have a baby <br /> brother or sister' <br />All I can say is <br /> 'I don't know sweetheart' <br />I can feel you sometimes <br /> especially in my dreams <br />For instead of being <br /> a baby angel <br />You turn into a baby in my arms <br />There are times <br /> when I would say <br />My baby is watching over me <br />What would you have been <br />I know that you <br /> have left for Heaven <br />So I ask <br /> that you protect us from there <br />My baby angel <br /> sitting on His lap<br /><br />Grace Hays<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/left-for-heaven/
