I was going to respond to this one but when I read this Guest poem, I knew I simply had to say it is perfect. Edgar Guest is my inspiration and my favorite All-American poet and he says it all so very well.

I read this poem in our local newspaper years ago when we had several children and youth die of different reasons in our area. It was so perfect I thought.
I always think of it when I hear about a child of any age dying. I have included it in sympathy cards sent to parents, hoping to ease their pain, at least, a little.
Yes, Kelli, Mr. Guest said it very well.
Patty
