My Love
I watch him leave with a wave good bye
His smile bigger than ever
I wait by the door for his return
As the tuck pulls up, I see him standing there only about 3 feet tall
He holds a hand as he gets ready to cross
He saw me and beamed me a smile
He pulled his hand away from that hand so he can come tell me about his day
He stepped out into the street without a clue
A truck shrieked to a stop and that hand tried to pull him away
Is he okay I wondered? Did he jump back in time? Was he hit?
Than I heard screams, but they were not his
I fell to my knees and cried
I thought I lost my youngest brother
Then I heard him scream
I ran to him and held him close to me
I yelled call 911, call 911 as i watched blood drip from his little body
As I held that teary eyed four year old his eyes connected with mine
He asked me Auttie am I going to die?
My heart broke in two, I said No my love you have angels watching over you
Tears dripped off my face onto his
He looked up at me and said Auttie don't cry I love you
He was so strong that day
The moral is life can change in an instant, so cherish the times you have with the people you love
