Little
blue bowl
In
a cupboard safekept
No
ordinary dish are you
For
you bore an angel’s touch
Well o'er a year
The
passage of cereal,
Baby
food, pasta, and
All
we shared with him
You
carried all the Cheerios
He gleefully
threw into orbit
Leaving
none within you
Little
blue bowl
When
we see you now
When
we wash you today
We see
his smile, the gleam
Of
joy, the firm conviction
He
knew he loved
And
was loved completely
And
you stood with him
Little
blue bowl
Within
you rested
One
more meal although
We
knew it not to
Be
the last before
He
lay down set to dream
And
in that slumber heard
His
Savior call his name
To
bring him home
This
day we recall his
Happy
birth to dwell among us
And
though he waits for us
We
remember him
Through
such as you
Little
blue bowl
