I only held you for a while

But my heart holds you forever

Treasured memories bring me comfort

Of the times we spent together

I still smell your baby smell

And sense your tiny form

I remember the amazing joy I felt

On the day that you were born

I think of you in heaven now

With the angels you sit and play

But I know this is only for a time

I'll hold you close again one day
