Here’s the poem I wrote for my sweet girl that we read at her service…

Oh my sweet Liliana,

How could this day come to be;

It seems like only yesterday,

I felt you kicking inside of me.

We only had just minutes,

To hold you while your heart still beat;

To tell you that we loved you,

To kiss your angel feet.

So now we look to heaven,

When we speak your precious name;

Your life is now with Him above,

And ours will never be the same.

Where you are there’s no more sorrow,

No sickness, no more pain;

No tears flowing from mommy’s eyes,

No darkness and no rain.

I know He holds you in His arms,

Where mommy’s hands once were;

You’re safe and warm on angels’ wings,

Of that I know for sure.

While I take comfort in His word,

That our Savior holds you near;

There’s one small thing that I must ask,

Please grant me this my dear.

Come meet me in my dreams tonight,

Please visit while I sleep;

Let me see your face, sweet girl,

So I can smile and no longer weep.

We’ll laugh and play and cuddle close,

Just like if you were here;

Whisper sweet lullabies and secrets,

While I nibble on your ear.

Do this for mommy, my angel girl,

As simple as it seems;

Cause life will be so perfect when,

I see you in my dreams.
