Happy Birthday Jeremiah 

I could have one wish in life,
That wish would have to be
That God would take away my pain
And send you back to me.

Your birthday’s here today, my son.
And I just wanted you to know
How deeply I love you
And that I miss you so.

On days like this, I should celebrate,
But for me, that now proves hard,
Unlike other mothers, I cannot send
A simple birthday card.

No kisses can I give you
Or birthday gifts to buy.
The only flowers I can give you now,

 I place down where you lie.

Two things I’ll send you, my son
Are my thoughts and all my love,
So hold them close and keep them safe
In your home

In Heaven up above.

And please wait for me, my darling
Until my days are through,
And then I’ll come and spend all the time
In Heaven, with only you.

Mom
