From Rain to Rainbows
By Jennifer Jackman
Dedicated to my dear Husband Robert, my Angel baby Marcus Levi, and my rainbows yet to come.
To my siblings yet to come
Let me tell you this today
I’ve gone to earth and felt the love
But also paved the way
When from heaven I departed
I was a little scared
But when I reached my destination
I knew that love was there
I knew the plan
And had agreed to all the things to come
But little did I know
I would have to leave such love
Let me tell you this our mom and dad
Have so much love to give
And when you get to earth
You will see how perfectly you fit
For I heard our mommy’s heartbeat
And I felt our daddy’s hands
And when they are together
The love they share is grand
I miss them oh so dearly
And give comfort when I can
But God has a job for me now
And I cannot let him down
So my dear siblings
I have a job for you
When you get to mom and dad
I have something I need you to do
Let Daddy know I’m still his pal
And will be forever more
For when he gets to heaven
We’ll sit along the shore
Make sure you give mommy
Twice as many hugs
And when she gives you kisses
Know they are sent from god above
For she is very special
And God knows that to be true
For only certain mommies
Can do what she can do
The dreams she had were oh so grand
And the plans she had were to
But little did she know
God had his own plans to
For when God called me home
She had to be so brave
And let her baby go
And lay my body in a grave
So when you get down to her arms
And feel the love she has
Just know that she has felt great pain
And to have you makes her glad
And when our daddy big and strong
Holds you in his hands
Just know his heart is softened
From the trials that he’s had
I wish I could be with them
And miss them every day
But my time on earth was brief
For I was not meant to stay
But the journey that is ahead of you
Will be so very grand
For you will have loving parents
To always hold your hand
And one more thing before I go
I feel I need to say
That I love our mommy and daddy
Each and every day
And when you feel the time is right
I have one more favor to ask
Please tell our parents oh so dear
Of all the love I have

Jen, I love these poems. What a brave strong mother you are. Your children are so lucky to have you to look forward to being their mother. Thank you so much for reminding me of how special and beautiful life is and that we should never take a day for granted. You are such a beautiful person.
