When you were born
you came to us
for six months did we keep
your sweet, new self
a tiny boy
and in our arms you’d sleep
then mommy sent us far away
and took your from our arms.
And never could we laugh again
only could we weep
But we know you still
we see you well, though
through the eyes of others
and we love you
til we meet again
and miss you
like no other
