Day By Day Poem by Ginny Cadle

Sometimes it's so hard to believe that you're really gone
For twenty-six days you tried to hold on
Day by day I held your hand
Not knowing what was in God's plan
When you were called to go to your other home
Upon this Earth I was left to roam
When your job on earth was done
Your memories were left to help carry me on
The memories will stay
They'll never go away
When I was a little girl you held me tight
And taught me how to do things right
When my heart was broken in two
I'd come running back to you
You always knew just what to say
And stood by my side til the pain went away
We did a lot of things together
Things that I'll cherish forever
We had a special bond just you and I
When I think of you it's so hard not to cry
In my heart there's a special place
That no one else on Earth can replace
In my heart you'll never be gone
Day by day your memories I'll carry on
The hardest thing I've ever had to do
Is say my final goodbye to you.
