I wrote a poem for the triplets:

Like beautiful flowers,
only much more than flowers and more beautiful too.
If only they could live long,
happy lives and linger in our company just a little bit more.
Here, by our side, holding our hands, playing,
looking into our eyes, maybe even forever.
That is when we see something different than just a flower.
We see the soul
and then we notice how fragile
and temporary the body is that contains it.
And then we know that forever is not here,
on this earth.
It is with the One who gave these precious gifts to us.
