In loving memory of my precious little boy, Joshua Michael Davis, who passed away 35 years ago on March 26th.

“The pain will go away, with time”

“It won’t be so bad, after awhile”

So said friends of mine

But they never lost a child

The pain will never go away

And only softens very slightly with time

My child is gone it hurts to say

I’ll never be “just fine”

You were my baby, my first born, my precious little angel, my son

And with your short life I know I wasn’t done

With loving and caring and all of life’s treasures I wanted for you

I keep thinking what would I do

If I had another moment to say I love you

How would I fill that moment I long for?

I would hold you tight within my arms, kiss you gently

And speak of all my love for you straight from my heart

My time with you was so very short

God took you way too soon

Please God hold my little one close and give him a kiss from me

And tell him how very much his Mommy loves and misses him

Till we meet again my precious little Josh

God has you in his keeping, but I have you in my heart
