Just for a while

[ConniesMammy.]

Just for a while you had a shining dream then darkness fell.
All around you,sadness and despair,
no light to guide you;no laughter there.
Just for a while i was your hope fulfilled.
Then hope was gone.
My soul released from its imperfect shell,
saw your tears and caught them as they fell.
I heard your voices sweet and warm,
i felt you touch and stroke my tiny form.
Like a butterfly that lives and dies in just one day,
i left the world and gently flew away
Just for a while and gently flew away.
Just for a while i touched your lives with joy,
And then with pain.
But dont be sad each coming year,
just hold each other close and say,
Just for a while our child was here.x

Did you write this Claire, its beautiful, yet sad and so poignant.  As with Connie, it fits Adam to a tee too.

 


Just one thing - is there an extra line that shouldnt be there?  The line that goes " Just for a while and gently flew away."  seems to be a copy of the line above and below it and spoils the flow a little.

No donna i copied it and thats how it was written in the book perhaps theres a line missing from there??it is sad yet lovely isnt it it was from our rememberance service at christmas just this morning came across the brochure they gave us.
