This poem was written by a friend 6 years ago after our twin girls were born and entered Heaven. I read it countless times after they passed, because it provided me with mind pictures of the hope I clung to. I asked my friend permission to share it on here today in their memory.
In memory of
Madison Faith ~ August 11, 2006

Heaven’s Joy
A Poem for Taylor and Madison
Sweet little twins
Born so small and perfect
We wanted you to stay
Did you feel our love?
Precious little babies
Hear the lullaby of Jesus
Snuggle close to angel’s wings
Your spirits light and free
Lovely little daughters
In your new glorious bodies
Your daddy’s hopes, your mama’s dreams
Are in the arms of our Eternal Father
Darling little girls
Playing together in heaven
Skipping streets of gold, hand in hand
Your laughter rings out
Joyful little princesses
Gathering flowers for Mama
Blowing kisses down to Daddy
Your sky paintings decorate our world
Wondrous little children
Wide-eyed at the feet of Jesus
Hearing the true and ancient stories
From the source, the King Himself
Watchful little guardians
With glances toward the gate
Like Madison waited for Taylor
Now watch and wait for us
Beautiful little angels
Making your home in Heaven
Show us all your special places
On that grand reunion day!
Eternal little souls
Our sorrow is Heaven’s joy
Unmatched love surrounds you now
In Heaven and from Earth
Holding you close today…I am so thankful that the hurt fades…but memories don’t!! Love you sweet friend.
Holly, I read this poem and the lump in my throat just got bigger and bigger. I am feeling your hurt today.. I know this pain and ask God to give you comfort as you remember such sweet painful memories.
