Our Baby
"Anonymous"
March 2006
She represented everything
hope, love, the future
I could see her waving arms
And angelic face, laughing
I could smell the fresh cut wood
As you built her cradle by hand
She was taken from us
before she was anything
But you and I are all about
Second chances, a new life
Our baby will be the Phoenix
Life coming from the ashes of death
