my poem for

~*Tanner*~





Tanner I love you ever so much,i miss your sweet gentle touch

I no letting you go was the best for you,but still its very hard for me too.



Whenever I was feeling down or blue, all I had to do to smile was look at you.

You had such a cute little smile and beautiful blue eyes, I never wanted to say my final good-byes



I new that one day you were going to die, but not so soon you were my little guy.

I no that your walking ,talking and playing up their, and watching me above from gods big chair.



Every night before bed I look up at the sky, and know that the brightest star is my little guy.

I say goodnight, and that I love you, have sweet dreams I’ll be thinking of you.



I love you so much don’t ever forget me, I’ll be thinking of you, be thinking of me too.

I love you so much Tanner always and forever your cousin

Tanner,

I miss you so much, no words can explain. You will always be our “special baby boy”, and you will always be a part of our lives. You have touched a very special place in my heart. Now that god has taken you to a better place, you can walk, talk, run, and be free now. I try to remind myself that you’re not in pain anymore, and that one day we’ll be together again. Until then have fun, be free, and remember that you’re in my dreams each and every night. I love you and miss you.

Your cousin,
