A Child here, a child gone.
it won't be long, only a few months
only a few good memories
The room was filled with sobs and sniffles
not including the desperate wails of a mother's misery
SIDS, I hate SIDS, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
I just wanted to go home
home to my bed, home to cry
to be at that place
oh Why did he have to die?
the innocent cries from him I'll hear no more
the happy face of a baby boy
the expressions he made when he saw something that interested him
the joy I felt as I held him
the joy others felt
the proudness of a father with his son
the happiness he had brung
Into this world, we hoped he would stay
Into this world, God called him away.
I wrote this at age 14 when my baby nephew died of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). I am posting this now cuz his birthday was 5 days ago. He would have been 10. We all miss him dearly but always keep him in our hearts. Please anyone expecting a child or with a infant, please research and learn how you can reduce the risks of SIDS. It can not be prevented. It could happen to anyone. Being informed can at least help you reduce your child's risk. Happy late Birthday Mason! We love you.
