With An Angel On My Shoulder: Friday Funny: Heat Wave

The Poem That Inspired My Subtitle

A Song for Daniel, Stillborn
by Jean Felice Eilbert (his mother)

When I held you in my arms that day
Born so still, born anyway
How was I to know to say goodbye?
No one knew just what to do
Except tell me I'd get over you
As if forgetting makes it all untrue -- a lie

But I remember to remember
I can't forget just to forget
Your memories are a part of me
Connecting me to what comes next.

And even after all this while
I think of you, sometimes I smile
Memories of my unknown child, fade slow.
I've held you in my heart each day
Life so short, life anyway
Memories are meant to say hello.

It has been soo hot here too. Finally cooling down today though. I think it's only supposed to be 83!; July 22, 2011

Last week was insane! So glad that heat wave is over - but apparently there is another one coming.
Sure could use some rain though... grass is drying.; July 25, 2011
