Stars above like diamonds grace took my baby from this place,
Gave him wings, so soft, so white, to guide me by the moon lit night,
His presence warm as the summer sun, a journey that has just begun,
Our hearts beat close like in the womb, my little boy was gone to soon,
Destined for greatness this world he left, days before he could take his first breath,
Strong like his father he took charge, guiding us when the hours are harsh,
Soft as the breeze his kisses on me, soaring the sky with a will to be free,
His limits are broken, not contained by this life, destined to be a star in the night,
Do not stand at the grave for his soul is so free, the way an angel is meant to be,
Beautiful eyes full of life and of love, never knowing the pain that we know of,
Weeping, sometimes, to be held in the arms, of loving parents that would keep him from harm,
Sweet baby, sweet love we miss you so, how were you the first to go?
The beating inside of your tiny heart was music when we were close yet apart,
I dream of your smile, your fingers and toes, inside my mind you still bloom like a rose,
I imagine your laugh, so vibrant and pure, just like your daddy, this I am sure,
Your cooing and laughter I longed to hear, I wish you were given a chance to be here,
But out of the gems God chose a diamond, to be in the heavens, away from confinement,
I'm proud of you Gabriel, my beautiful boy, heaven is a place for you to enjoy,
Remember our hearts are always entwined, and I have an angel that's special and mine.
