| Our Baby Was a Gift |
| By Jennifer Braun |
| Our baby was a gift to us, and a great teacher.
We learned patience and compassion. We were given a crash course in values ~ Things that once seemed so important All at once became meaningless. There was a new depth to our souls, our faith, and our being ~ A learning A wisdom An understanding. We ourselves had touched death ~ Death that came wrapped in a little blanket. This was death to our humanity. We have also touched life and hope. A life we will greet in heaven, And a hope to meet him there soon. A faith we once practiced, we now live. We discovered friends and neighbors we never knew. Stories that resonate throughout generations. People who taught us empathy and comfort. We learned how to let go and to go on. All these things were taught to use by a precious teacher Who never spoke a work or taught a class And whose footprints will remain always in our heart. |
