"Mommy
Save a Place for me at the Table"

I love you but it just wasn't time yet
I heard your searching pleas
And I'm so sorry that I had to go
It pains me but my soul
still rests in Heaven
I'm gaining strength
But the hours are ticking slow
You smiled at me with utmost
care
Your hurt and grief are mine
This is a fact that you must know
Allow for faith in everything
I'm in your thoughts and dreams
In the Universe our love will flow
Mommy save a place for me
at the table
I am trying hard to come back to you again
I may not look the same
Or e'en remember
But I will try as hard as might to ease the pain
Mommy, souls of babies past
and present
Are gathered with me praying for your peace
And if at all possible
Sometime soon now
I'll make it back in time for grief's decease
Mommy I love you I will
smile forever
And if we don't meet on Earth in this or another life
Someday we will meet
again in Heaven
Ending all your woes and lonesome strife
Mommy save a place for me
at the table
I love you and I want to help you see
Your love for me
will never be forgotten
As hearts will beat in tuneful eternity
