Dude by Martha

I always knew that God loaned you to me
only for a little while so that
I could learn how to love and be loved.
I am so sorry I wasn’t there
when He came to take you back home again,
but you know you were and
will be in my heart every moment of every day.
Your fire lives on in so many
other hearts as well.
Be a good boy, run and play, and
before you know it,
we’ll be crossing the Bridge
together, and no time or space
will ever come between us again.

“Grief is the price we pay for love.”

With all my heart

Mommy
