For Matilda Mae and jennie xxx

How do you say goodbye to a life so short,
a life that ought
To have continued on and on,
not taken before she was even one.

How to offer comfort to someone you do not really know,
To someone whose pain you cannot fathom...
A pain I pray I will never know.

Your baby's smile I can see, lit up a room,
lifted anyone who was special enough to witness it,
lifting them from their gloom.

There's no comfort I can write,
No words,
No amount of tears from a stranger
That will make any of your pain alright.

I am sorry and I am sad.

I Have lit a candle today for your precious little one,
As she blows bubbles in heaven with the creator,
Rainbow bubbles raining down on everyone.
