Samuel Bucci

In loving memory of our beloved Samuel Bucci, September 17, 1991 - January 26, 2010

We are connected, my child and I

An invisible cord, not seen by the eye

It’s not like the cord that connects us ‘til birth

This cord can’t be seen by any on earth

This cord does its work right from the start

It binds us together attached to my heart.

I know that it’s there,

Though no one can see the invisible cord from my child to me.

The strength of this cord is hard to describe

It can’t be destroyed, it can’t be denied.

It’s stronger than any cord man could create

It withstands the test, can hold any weight

And though you are gone,

though you’re not here with me

The cord is still there but no one can see.

It pulls at my heart, I am bruised, I am sore

But this cord is my lifeline as never before.

I am thankful that God connects us this way

A mother and child, Death, can’t take it away.
