JUST A MOMENT AGO
Remembering those who died... May we never forget....
Just a moment ago, you were one minute old, nestled close to my heart so that you would be warm.
Just a moment ago, you were just turning three, chasing down butterflies, and giggling with glee.
Just a moment ago, I stood cheering your game as you hit a home run and the crowd yelled your name.
Just a moment ago, you walked down the aisle, now a handsome young groom with the happiest smile.
Just a moment ago, you brought me your son, and I marveled the miracle that I had begun.
Just a moment ago, I stood silent and prayed, asking God for His mercy on that horrible day.
Just a moment ago, I stood mourning my child, as I looked to the heavens remembering your smile.
Just a Moment Ago...
