Oh, I'm so sorry to hear the sad news.
Please know we are all thinking of you during this sad time....
I'm glad you did. I used to live and breathe poetry..for many, many years. I kind of put it aside for later in life. Which er um, seems to be now. I feel ready to get back to having it be a part of my life.Originally Posted by maddensmom
Thank you. For some reason I am really shy about sharing my poetry with family, so it feels really good to have someone to share it with besides my husband.
That poem is great!! Once again, sorry you had to go through that.Originally Posted by maddensmom
I'm not much of a poet...but when I'm down sometimes it helps me feel a little better to write it down. I wrote this for the baby and I wanted to share it with you guys.
I was a mommy for a moment,
a tiny slice of time,
and if only for that moment,
all the world was mine.
I never got to hold you,
or look into your eyes,
or to tell you that I loved you,
or listen for your cries.
I didn't get to buy you,
all sorts of baby things,
but now you've got much more than that
'cause now you've got your wings.
Now you're my little angel,
with your daddy's bright blue eyes
smiling down at me from Heaven
telling mommy not to cry.
