Written for my daughter-in-law after a deeply revealing email she wrote to me
Though your heart is aching
And your soul is filled with grief
There is comfort in knowing
There is a recipe for relief

The heavy burdens you carry
Weigh you down with sorrow and pain
But dear heart there is hope
And you can know peace again

The sorrow of your past
You carry with you every day
Rest gently my loved one
For there is peace on the way

To bare your heart and show the sorrow
Can be a very soul wrenching thing
But reaching out to your loved ones
Will true happiness, peace and solace bring.

The beloved daughter Hailey
Whom you lost at thirteen weeks
Rests safe in the arms of Jesus
And through the veil of memory peeks

You are never alone dear heart
She is with you as you run life’s race
Soon you will hold your beloved daughter
And look upon her face

Your daughter knows you are her mother
So fear not beloved one
Hailey will be waiting for you in heaven
When life’s journey you have run

So be of brave heart my darling
And enjoy your time on this earth
Love and cherish the other children
To whom you gave the blessing of birth

Someday you shall all be reunited
With you dear husband by your side
Tears of happiness will replace
The empty aching ones you’ve cried

So dear heart let your heart and soul rejoice
For within you is a dearly beloved soul
The sorrow and pain you have borne thus far
Will ease and in time make you whole
