The writing on your headstone
Identifies your name.
It shows dates of birth and death,
which are not far from the same.

Time has passed our little one.
The days have turned to years.
But you are not forgotten.
We still shed many tears.

We come to your grave often,
though we know that you’re not here.
God took your perfect spirit home
so He could have you near.

This special spot where you were laid
by the headstone with your name,
Is a place we’ll often visit
‘Til you’re in our arms again.
