London's Eternal Laughter

London Laina Washington was stillborn on 

January 1, 2014 with a due date of January 3.

Please keep her family in your thoughts & prayers!

May this poem be a conduit for London's legacy

to live on in you even though she never took a breath!

By reading this, her light lives on in you. 

May it remind you of how precious life and

those relationships you are blessed with are!

London's Eternal Laughter

such pain in hearing giggles 

and a cry that never came

these walls an empty shell

still echo out her name

harder now to breathe 

as you lay there on her floor

the world won’t know the girl

this girl you so adored

you see her now in dreams

in visions through your tears

her light that never shined

a reminder through the years

her light was held from you

while waiting hear on earth

but make no mistake your London 

still had a perfect birth

she was born above the stars

into the masters hands

this light 

her life 

more perfect

than these mortal shifting sands

though this moment stops my heart

as i think of London’s eyes

hold tight to the promise of meeting her

one day above the skies
