Symbol Of Love (Sonnet) by simone_girard
Father weeps and mother cries
As a newborn baby closes her eyes
Nobody knows why she's gone
Her mother and father's hearts are torn
Doctor said he did all he coulda
Father says maybe I shoulda
But mother only lays silent and sad
Knowing things have never been this bad
People come to show dismay
Hold their hand and have their say
It's for the best they will hear
Even when the tears are near
So they say goodbye to their symbol of love
As their baby moves on to god above
Now all that they felt was their gladness
Is turned entirely to heartache and sadness
And now the time has come to mourn
Although their baby was just born
But in years to come when they look above
That star they see will be their symbol of love.
