    Andrew died 3 months old.

    The black crows are gathering overhead,
    The roses bloom in seasons all their own,
    The green hills I once loved, seem distant and dead
    This garden will soon be overgrown.

    My child was taken by  God’s hand,
    And I am left to try and understand.
    Where is my gentle Andrew?

    The doctors said it was heart defect,
    But I disagree,
    His little heart was perfect,
    It was just not his time to be.

    Oh will that Sun ever stop judging me?
    It wasn’t my fault.
    Will the moonlight ever be kind to me?
    Or will I be the target for another insult?

    Tonight I will not do the dishes,
    Tonight I will not grant your wishes,
    Tonight I will raise the glass of hemlock to my lip,
    And I pray to God to give me the courage to sip.

    Do you remember this comment you posted to my poem. "First of all there is no Christ. Second of all there is not God .So I stopped reading this religious tripe". Well suck it up chump, he's gone. Don't cry on God's shoulder now. Remember, you said there's no Christ or God (those are your words)!

    I am very deeply sorry you lost an angel. Please dont drown yourself in drinking. Be the best Dad you can be to your angel in heaven. I am sorry If i came off mean from my comment. I can feel your pain. I had a miscarriage at 5 months opd and it still devestates me. No one knew i was pregnant... i have lived a hard life but i know still that God is here. I to have problems accepting reality and trying to go forward but we have to keep believing andpraying that God will help us and guide us. If you read the book of Job, satan killed all his kids amd he lost everything. It was a test cuz satan thought he could take job and convert him to his side but job never stopped praying to God. Yes he was angry and mad and said some things. I can relate to job real well in the bible. But in the end job had double of what he had more kids more animals more land... everything. Cuz God blessed him even through all the hardship. No it dont bring back his kids he lost or anything else but it was a test of God. We arent designed to understand it we just need faith to believe it. Maybe God needed your angel to help another or maybe he didnt want your child and you to suffer from the problems he had?? Or maybe none of that at all, maybe it was just satan playing games with you. God will bless you and you have to believe that. Dont give into satan and dont lose your faith. Be happy he was with you for a short time instead of not at all. Use his smile and warmth tocomfort your other children. I will pray for you and your family. Maybe you will have twins next time? God works in mysterious ways but ou also have to believe satan is a thief and a liar and he wants to destroy us.. your angel is in heaven watching you so please make him proud.

    These are fairy tales but thank you for your concern
