A baby rattle among the reeds In Loving Memory Of My Son Scott Aug.3, 1967 - Feb. 8, 2008 Curiously he opens the baby rattle to see What miracle makes those sounds for me. Amazed, when he beholds what's inside. Holding out both hands side by side. Unveiling seven tiny hardened seeds Made from wood growing among the reeds. Stands the tree from where the rattle came to be Like seeds of the tree creating him inside of me. The veil between Heaven and earth Lifted, to give me God's gift, a son to birth. Weaving him from His special cloth by hand For a journey to fulfill His special plan... You are God's gift to me I give you back so you can be Your part of the tree from where the rattle came to be. My Son Scott written Oct. 2007 Copyright�2007 Carole Cookie Arnold

Be always safe,
