I watched him grow from a baby to a boy <br />from a boy to a man <br />but as he lay there as if he was a sleep <br />so peacefully <br />tears began to run wildly down my face <br />for it was all over <br />why so early in life <br />he was barley a year <br /> <br />as he soared to the heavens <br />he took more then his <br />heart and sole <br />he took a little bit of everyone’s in my family <br />he was like a nephew to me <br />and her son <br />why was he taken from her <br />so early <br /> <br />Tido <br />lost more then a companion <br />he lost a friend <br />a play mate <br />and a brother <br />but she has lost a son <br /> <br />what will she ever do with out him <br />no one will ever know <br />but her <br /> <br />I’ve lost a nephew <br />our mom and dad a grand child <br />Tido a brother <br />Sierra a play mate <br />Maggie and Katie a friend <br />and <br />Cassie a son <br /> <br />p.s. I dedicate this poem to Bear <br />Cassie’s dog that died 3-25-07 <br />from being hit by a car<br /><br />Mrs. Cynosure<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bear-2/
