Nicholas' Touch: Your Garden

NICHOLAS WARREN REEVES

OUR SWEET ANGEL BABY

NOVEMBER 7, 2008

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

Before we said our first hello,

The time had already passed.

For when you held me in your arms,

I had gone to heaven to rest.

I felt angelic tears down my cheeks,

And I watched you as you wept.

I wish I could have changed it all,

Your tears touched my soul so deep

But mommy & daddy when you are sad,

Please be assured I know.

For death cannot take away your love,

It will only continue to grow.

When you are feeling far away,

And missing me so much.

Close your eyes and feel my wings,

Their soft and gentle touch.

Or at night as you sleep,

I will join you in a dream.

You will see me standing close to you.

And we’ll be lost within my wings.

So my dear mommy and daddy,

As you go from day to day,

Find comfort in the knowledge,

I am never that far away.

Your Garden

Your Garden

Nicholas,

When we say we love your garden
and we are pleased with how it's grown
please know that we miss you,
and wish to have you home.

Our dream is that your garden
didn't have to exist,
we should be watching you grow,
and healing boo boo's with a kiss.

Instead...
we choose each rock with care
and plant each bloom with love,
we want your space to be perfect,
as you watch from up above.

It's one small thing we do for you
and we remember all the while...
we hope you like your special spot,
I can almost see your smile.

Love you, baby boy
Mommy ~ June 2010
