Budded on Earth to Bloom in Heaven
by Jennifer Duchesne
Please don't ask me to understand
That's impossible, I don't think I can
You were both made out of precious love
Then you were sent straight above
Your little spirits are not alone, so don't fear
Sara and Raymond, you're together, my dears
My heart will always hold a special place for you
So does another, your Daddy, that's who
I cry tears of pain because you're not here
I used to dream of that day I could hold you near
You both would've loved your sister so
It hurt so much to hear you had to go
You'll both forever be a part of me
You are all my children, Sara, Raymond, and Baylee
No more worries, my angels are safe in Heaven
But that doesn't keep me from wondering how things could've been
The only thing I wish you both knew
That is, from the bottom of my heart... I Love You!
With all my love,
Mommy
