Honor Grace
Born April 9th 2011
and stayed for only a few short hours
Honor, beloved beauty, pure and true
For both of you w'ed sacrifice our lives
We prayed for one, but then were blessed with two
And then we saw you, princess, a surprise
No words are crafted well enough to write
The beauty we were blessed enough to see
You had your mothers face and will to fight
We longed to touch your hands and kiss your feet
In love, we watched you, and your brother play
No pair of parents could have been more glad
Too soon we held you, felt your heart give way
We tried to keep you, heaven took you back
Honor wait for us with Owen, and I pray
That one day in heaven is a century
Honor, princess, smile down on us each day
And one day soon again, we'll be a family
