Do you know little diamond, your mother's a star?

A poem for my very brave friend after her little boy passed away, A tribute to how she coped, and carried on for the rest.

Beautiful from birth a diamond as bright as the rest 

Playing in the garden with your big brothers, they’re the best

The biscuit tin you would find, no need for a map 

Beautiful awake and when having a nap

 In just one minute lives were changed from happiness to deep pain

None of us could believe that on this earth, we wouldn’t see you again,

Yes for your mam the blur and the pain went on and on,

Her strength carrying her through because you’d gone

You would have been proud of your mam if you were looking down

Not burying her head behind a bitter frown

She’s done you proud, staying strong for the rest

However short your time; to have you we were blessed.

Mam, dad, big brothers, family and friends, so loved by them all

What a big impact you made, even though you were so small

 You were too young to leave us, that’s the truth

Gone your childhood and your youth

Your mam, little diamond, had more strength than we knew

She needed to; there was so much to get through

She has been with you every second since that day

In her heart and dreams forever you’ll stay.

You know you will always be a sparkle in your mam’s eye

Because you are the diamond, that’s her little guy

This one thing I know for sure, you and your mam will never be apart,

Cos you’re in the closest, safest place, secure in her heart.
