This is a poem found by the father of an eight-year-old boy who was killed in the Air India Crash. It was tacked to a bulletin board in his room. The author is unknown. My friend and neighbour, Pauline Ward, who has hand-embroidered the Maplerose Panels of Canada has done a hand-embroidered panel of this poem and it is gorgeous. Once we have a picture of it, and several other individual panels of Pauline's, you will see them on her site so please keep going back. Now, read this awesome, heart-warming poem and enjoy.
