Towards the Clouds

Dear Nicholas, my special boy,


I looked toward the clouds today
and for a moment saw your face.
And wondered just where you have gone
with the hope it's a peaceful place.

Did you show yourself to me today
to tell me you're all right?
Or was it just a daydream,
playing tricks upon my sight?

Then I thought of when you left,
still too young to say a word.
Yet the look you gave us said it all,
in our hearts, your good-bye was heard.

You have changed our lives forever,
your short time here not in vain,
and hope you know we tried it all,
to keep you safe from pain.

We will always feel the void inside,
because you are not here,
But each new thought you send our way,
let's us know you're always near.

So until our journey nears it's end
and we hear the Angels sing,
We'll face each new day as it comes,
and live off the Love you bring.
