I'm so sorry buddy!! Didn't mean to bring anything up, my grandson is 5 and I have no idea how I would get through anything happening to him.  So this topic is something you would know more about than I, but in my morbid brain I think about it because I love him so much and see him every day of his life.

Damn Kay-lynn, not saying I won't give it a try, but it's hitting close to home.
We didn't lose a child but we did lose our only grandbaby, my wife visit's her grave at least once a week, I only go there maybe 3 or 4 times a year. I still remember all then feelings. :'(
Title: Challenge #4 (hard one)

If you could write a song that would comfort a parent who lost a child, what do you think the title would be? Could you write a song about the "feeling" without saying someone lost a child (?)

It's a tough assignment because it would have to be uplifting, not depressing.

Hard assignment for me too.  This is a full song challenge.  So I'm going to make the deadline July 4th so we all remember and have plenty of time to think it through.

Find a co-writer on the forum, team up if you want. That would be awesome!

Good Luck!!
