Tiny Teddy

 Thinking of Teddy


Thinking of Teddy

Born four months early

Living with tubes and leads

The only things he’s ever seen. 


Hailing from Boston

But it doesn’t matter

Where young life appears

Loved both far and near. 


Witness to a precious life

For all life means the same

Priceless and worth praying for

We pray for each by name. 


Whether in a Boston  clinic

Or in an Auschwitz chamber

In a cratered Kyiv church

Every soul we will remember. 


Bless young Teddy as he fights

For his life this Friday evening

Bless the staff and parents

Bless the healing and caring. 


The nurses hands and the parents heart

Encompass Teddy in the ICU

We wish him well with our butterfly prayers

When we wake with hope on Saturday morning.
