I guess I hit the "enter" button too soon on that last post. Here's the meat in the sandwich.
Sonnet 133 (Some children live for only just a while) by Tom Matkin, March 30, 2002 Some children live for only just a while Mere visitors not really part of us Perhaps they've proved themselves without this trial Not needing but a touch of all this fuss. It wounds us when they get their final call We grieve and fret and feel the hand of pain Invested as we are in loving all It hurts, but it's our duty to remain. We know they meet with glory where they go They lose no blessings from their shortened stay And leave their touch of heaven's love below To spark resolve to live a better way. So one day when our earthly stay is done Brief guests and us can once again be one.
