Alexander David
We did not know you
But a little
Yet we loved you
You were part of us
And as we held you
We washed your beautiful body
With our tears
And you taught us purely
Of life and love and death
While you returned
To the infinite
Toni
Written for her grandson Alexander David Svetchin Proudlove who was stillborn on April 10th 2007 due to a suspected umbilical cord accident.
