"and the memory remains" by Great Aunt Anne

(Submitted by Great Aunt Anne on 7/7/99)

For Baby Mark and all those who love him…

Gentle Baby, Child of Love

Fragrant and soft and sweet

And the Memory Remains

Gentle Baby, Born in love

All who knew you

Loved, tended, ministered to you

And the Memory Remains

Gentle Baby, Named for love

Sleeping so peacefully till

The seizures took you for a moment

And the Memory Remains

Gentle Baby, Angel of God

I held you, rocked you,

Loved you

And the Memory Remains
