THE CHERISHED SON

THE CHERISHED SON
WE HAD A SON, SO BEAUTIFUL, AND FULL OF ALL GODS GRACE.
A SMILE WAS BORN AND BRIGHTENED US FROM RIGHT UPON HIS FACE.
HIS LOVE SO WARM AND TENDER THAT IT'S ALL WE COULD EMBRACE.
BUT HIS BODY AND HIS HEART, TO YOUNG TO WORK, THAT WAS THE CASE.
THAT IS WHY HIS STAY ON EARTH, WAS ONLY BUT ONE DAY,
THE GRACE OF GOD HAS TAKEN HIM AND THAT IS WHERE HE'LL STAY!
HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED, BY HIS MOTHER AND HIS DAD,
THE LITTLE BOY THEY LOVED SO MUCH, THE LITTLE BOY THEY HAD.
NOT EVEN WITH HIS TRAGEDY WAS THE LITTLE BOY TO SAD,
FOR HE’D OPENED ALL OUR HEARTS WITH LOVE, FOR HIS JOY WE ARE SO GLAD
HIS LIFE LIVES ON A LEGACY,
THE TEARS WE SHED SO TRUE,
YOU'LL ALWAYS BE MY SON TO ME
AND DAD I'LL BE TO YOU!
LOVE YOU ALWAYS...
THIS POEM IS DEDICATED TO TROY ALEXANDER
IN LOVING MEMORY OF HIS DEPARTURE ON MAY 10, 2005
(he would have turned four on Sunday)
