Happy Heavenly Birthday To My Baby Boy

we lost you eleven years ago, March 24, 2015, at 11:20 pm eastern standard time

this poem doesn't have to rhyme

you were always so very kind

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my baby boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

if you happen to be looking down

if you happen to be looking around

if you see the bleak picture that you found

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my baby boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

I don't know why he took your life from you that night

things have not improved since he put out your bright light

things have gotten worse in the world despite God's might

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my baby boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

if you could see what was going on below

if you could see what all it shows

you would see a world at odds with all its foes

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my Baby Boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

the garden is full of seeds that are suppose to grow

you stood for courage, you fought in a war

you fought for a child, that wasn't yours

because you felt she needed you more

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my Baby Boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

but today that child turned their back on your memories

does genetics play a part of everyone's legacy

if I could turn back the clock, would you still be here today

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my Baby Boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

to your resting place no one else goes

but I wonder if you are looking down and see we always show

putting flowers on your grave, I wonder if your heavenly father knows

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my Baby Boy

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

I miss you, you were my very best friend

I wonder if murder had not intervened, just how it would end

To heaven I will send

HAPPY HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY TO MY BABY BOY

This is dedicated to my son Richard L Jacobs Jr.

Until we meet again, I loved you while you were on this earth, and I will love you beyond this lifetime................until we meet again ..............

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICKY!!!
