    My son; the day you were born.
    You brought me the biggest Christmas I ever had.
    You looked up at me, and smile as I rocked and cradle you in my arms.
    You grew so fast so soon, you surprised everyone.
    You giggle so loud as we sledge ride; and learn to throw snow balls.
    We both would watch the squirrels as they glide from tree to tree.
    The birds would sing as they sat on the tree limbs in so many different colors.
    You taught me to be brave, as I punched holes in jar tops for your worms.
    I am so sorry I was never able to accept your love of snakes.
    It was such a release when hamsters show up from underneath the furniture.
    It was fun how the dog and cat provided protection for us.
    We shared the fish; soon all the animals around.
    I glad you taught me to be brave.
    “So now you prepared me of my fear of losing you so soon.”
    God got you in his hands.
    I fear not in him; you are safe resting in his hands.
    “In Heaven”
    Love Your Mom
    Wanda Horace

    To The Son
    Of
    William Zanderick Horace

    Oh how soon did I reach the Golden gate.
    Such peace I felt with Gods hands around my aches and pains.
    When I was released in the hands of his angles; through the golden gate.
    Now I look down on you from above my son.
    My heart was heavy while I lay thinking of how I would miss you.
    God showed me courage to let go; so you would not have to see me suffer no more.
    When God reached out his hands.
    I smiled at him; and said father I stretch my hands out to thee.
    Please take my hand hands and lead me on to the promise land.
    The land of peace far beyond the sky.
    My child dont shed no more tears. I am at peace listings to the angles sing.
    Knowing I will see you soon one day around Gods thrown.
    WH
