Fathers and daughters ~ Mothers and sons,
Each child a blessing ~ Even the hellions,
God’s gifts to each mom and dad,
To hold and love when happy and sad,
This baby in arms who laid so tender,
Brings tears now as you remember,
He didn’t like diapers ~ He didn’t like clothes,
He wanted to play with his fingers and toes,
He wanted to be just like his big brother,
Wrestling matches ensued one after another,
Two peas in a pod and no regrets,
Now, tears and smiles are a duet,
This child became a part of your soul,
While trying to ready him for his adult role,
Thirsty years of laughter ~ Thirty years of love,
Has given you grandchildren ~ Blessed from above,
Yet, The Father has now called his name,
Cry your tears but don‘t assign blame,
He was on loan ~ He was a gift,
He left a legacy ~ Rejoice in this,
Look around at the world that he loved,
And know you’re loved from Heaven Above,
Do for him now ~ What you did for him then,
Teach his children ~ All you taught him.
~~~
Joseph Clinton Adams

Condolences on the loss of your friends son.
You had me in tears. I need a whole box
of tissues. This absolutely broke my heart
to read. A tragic loss and at such a young
age. My heart, thoughts & prayers are with you and Joseph's family~
He was on loan ~ He was a gift,
He left a legacy ~ Rejoice in this,
Look around at the world that he loved,
And know you’re loved from Heaven Above,
Do for him now ~ What you did for him then,
Teach his children ~ All you taught him
These words pull at the heart strings.
May God give you all the strength to get
through this sad time.
hugs & prayers,
