He was a lovely little lad,
Sometimes good sometimes bad,
His hair was golden red,
Some of the kids called it ginger instead.


When he was 10yrs old,
An illness struck him that left everyone feeling cold,
The last year he has fought his best,
Putting his parents faith to the test.


Last week he gave up his fight,
Late late into the night,
This little lad could fight no more,
He has left to be with his Saviour.


His parents are so distraught,
As this deal was the worst they could have got,
My thought are with them at this time,
William is an Angel above that shines



For a Little boy whom I had the joy of meeting while teaching in school

I was browsing around and found this beautiful and inspiring poem. Two things: 1) My best friend in High School died of leukemia our junior year. So, this poem spoke to me softly thinking of her. 2) I'm a sub teacher, and work with disabled kids. I meet lots of kids and get very close to them. It's very sad when they get sick and pass.
I find it very sweet that you had the heart to write such a beautiful poem for someone and dedicate it to him.
Feel free to check out some of my poems and stories.

I get so depressed when i learn kids dying at an early age of strange tumors and diseases and i could not bring myself to do a PG in a clinical field....

I opted to go for laboratory and escapism....

This is so sad....what would have happened to the parents....i cried lots
