Your pain and loss I can not fathom
I can only that pray I never do
I see you standing straight and tall
Knowing it is His hand supporting you
As you look upon one so tiny
and one too soon gone
You stand tall and majestic
with a Mother's broken heart, yet so strong
Your arms forever empty
of a loving daughter and grandson
Your heart will hold forever
the love never gone
You treasure what you had
And push through each new day
For peace comfort and understanding
is what I truly pray.
Your strenght I do so envy
Your pain I can not imagine
but your journey each day
to me is a faithful beacon.
It is a strength beyond your own
that holds you up in this life's trauma
You stand mighty and tall
You are a True Steel Magnolia
Dedicated to Lee and Jim
in Loving Memory of
their daughter and infant grandson
Adrian and AJ
