A Poem for our babies gone too soon

I am borrowing this poem from Dana's blog.  It is so beautiful, and reminds me to try to live in the present and enjoy life's gifts, to know that I carry Angel with me every day, in every moment -- it is important to remember all of this, even though part of my heart is always somewhere else.
 
_________
 
I heard your voice in the wind today
and I turned to see your face;
The warmth of the wind caressed me
as I stood silently in place.

I felt your touch in the sun today
as its warmth filled the sky;
I closed my eyes for your embrace
and my spirit soared high.

I saw your eyes in the window pane
as I watched the falling rain;
It seemed as each raindrop fell
it quietly said your name.

I held you close in my heart today
it made me feel complete;
You may have died…but you are not gone
you will always be a part of me.

As long as the sun shines…
the wind blows…
the rain falls…
You will live on inside of me forever
for that is all my heart knows.
