MY ANGEL

I was seventeen and pregnant...
not sure what we would do,
no clothes, no pretty dresses
for your feet, no little white shoes.

I felt  your kick deep inside
and wonderd what  you would grow up to be,
I couldn't wait for you to be born....
I needed you there with me.

I felt the pains start low in my back
and knew  it was time for you,
but something isn't going right...
do you feel it too?

Twenty-two hours of hard labor
as the doctor tells me not to fear,
they insert the needle low in my back
and tell me you will soon be here.

Today I lie in this hospital bed
as silent tears run down my face
they lowerd the wooden box in the ground...
lined with white satin and lace.

Reality really began to set in
the first time I visited your grave...
snow flakes clung as well as tears
and mingled on my grief stricken face.

But deep inside I know...
God always knows what's best
he's taken another angel home
where she will wait for me in her little white dress.
