Poems of LOSS

My Angel Baby
To the baby that I carried But never seen your eyes Or tell you how much I loved you Or ever to hear your cries.You will never be forgotten The excitement we had for your coming.When I realized I'd never hold you, The feeling I had was numbing.My angel baby is who you are.My angel baby you'll always be.Your loving memory will live in my heart So you will always be right here with me




WAITING FOR YOU
I'm pregnant I just got the news I sit rubbing by belly waiting for you.Although you can't move yet I still fell you there as I close my eyes and fall deep into prayer.Dear God, thank you for this precious child this is a miracle from heaven there is no denial.I imagine holding you as you place your hand into mine as I opened my eyes and realized the time.You left me to early and for this I still weep my womb is empty the pain is so deep.I can't help but wonder if you are OK I imagine you placing your hand into mine one day as we soar side by side in the heavens above but for now my angel I will still give you love as I rub my belly you are not there as I look up to heaven with a wondering stare.I close my eyes and begin to pray Jesus, will you please bless me again one day.



To Mother and Father
There's a corner up in heaven Where the little babies play,And our Blessed Mother watches All throughout the live long day.They're a happy lot, these babies Sure the reason's very plain For they've missed the world's contagion,Came unscathed, without it's pain. "Tis an angel band they call them And you both should happy be You're the parents of an angel 'Cause your baby's there you see.Yes, and smiling down upon you With an innocent sublime:Waiting: watching for the parents He will meet again in time.You should never be rebellious Rather thank a loving God For your little guardian angel As along life's way you plod,With a faith that never falters Clasping each the other's hand Pledge yourselves to meet your baby In that better happy land.~Author Unknown



A Part Of Me
As I sit and remember When you were still a part of me I try to forget...Your life was never meant to be.You were given a life, a soul, a name But now things will never be the same.You were mine to give life to Though only for a while Things had changed...I will never see your smile.Yet my love for you Will never disappear Through your voice, your laugh,I will never get to hear.You will always be my baby Though I've never seen your face.Not a thing in this world Can ever take your place.




"I know I'll see the sun shine bright upon my baby's face.... When I finally get to heaven, all my pain will be erased. We'll soar the skies together, as angels two by two. We'll have a sweet reunion, this mother's dream come true!" ~Unknown




They Say There is a Reason They say there is a reason,They say that time will heal,But neither time nor reason,Will change the way I feel,For no-one knows the heartache,That lies behind our smiles,No-one knows how many times,We have broken down and cried,We want to tell you something,So there won't be any doubt,You're so wonderful to think of,But so hard to be without. ~Author Unknown




"These are my footprints, so perfect and so small. These tiny footprints never touched the ground at all. Not one tiny footprint, for now I have wings. These tiny footprints were meant for other things. You will hear my tiny footprints, in the patter of the rain. Gentle drops like angel's tears, of joy and not from pain. You will see my tiny footprints, in each butterflies' lazy dance. I'll let you know I'm with you, if you just give me the chance. You will see my tiny footprints, in the rustle of the leaves. I will whisper names into the wind, and call each one that grieves. Most of all, these tiny footprints, are found on Mommy and Daddy's hearts. 'Cause even though I'm gone now, We'll never truly part." ~Unknown




Don't let them say, I wasn't born. That something stopped my heart I felt each tender squeeze you gave I've loved you from the start.Although my body you can't hold,It doesn't mean I'm gone.This world was worthy, not, of me God chose that I move on.I know the pain that drowns your soul,What you are forced to face.You have my word, I'll fill your arms Someday we will embrace.You'll hear that it was "meant to be,God doesn't make mistakes"But that won't soften your worst blow..Or make your heart not ache.I'm watching over all you do, another child you'll bear.Believe me when I say to you,That I am always there.There will come a time, I promise you When you will hold my hand,Stroke my face and kiss my lips And then you'll understand.Although, I've never breathed your air,Or gazed into your eyes..That doesn't mean I never "was"An Angel Never Dies........ ~Unknown




I thought of you and closed my eyes, And prayed to God today. I asked what makes a Mother, And I know I heard him say: A mother has a baby, This we know is true. But, God, can you be a mother, When your baby's not with you? Yes, you can he replied, With confidence in his voice. I give many women babies, When they leave is not their choice. Some I send for a lifetime, And others for a day. And some I send to feel your womb, But there's no need to stay. I just don't understand this God, I want my baby here. He took a breath and cleared his throat, And then I saw a tear. I wish that I could show you, What your child is doing today, If you could see your child smile, With other children who say: We go to earth and learn our lessons, Of love and life and fear. My mommy loved me oh so much, I got to come straight here. I feel so lucky to have a mom, Who had so much love for me. I learned my lessons very quickly, My mommy set me free. I miss my mommy oh so much, But I visit her each day. When she goes to sleep, On her pillow's where I lay. I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek, And whisper in her ear. "Mommy don't be sad today, I'm your baby and I'm here." So you see my dear sweet one, Your children are OK. Your babies are here in My home, They'll be at heavens gate for you. So now you see what makes a mother. It's the feeling in your heart. It's the love you had so much of, Right from the very start. Though some on earth may not realize you are a mother, until their time is done. They'll be up here with Me one day, And you'll know that you're the best one! ~Author Unknown





Daddy please don't look so sad, momma please don't cry. Cause I'm in the arms of Jesus, and he sings me lullabies. Please try not to question God, don't think he is unkind. Don't think he sent me to you and then changed his mind. You see I'm a special child, I am needed up above. I'm the special gift you gave Him, a product of your love. I'll always be there with you, so watch the sky at night. Look for the brightest star and know that's my halo's brilliant light. You'll see me in the morning frost that mists your window pane. That's me in the summer showers, I'll be dancing in the rain. When you feel a gentle breeze from a gentle wind that blows. Know that it's me planting a kiss upon your nose. When you see a child playing and your heart feels a tug, Don't be sad mommy, that's just me giving your heart a hug. So daddy don't looks so sad and momma please don't cry. I'm in the arms of Jesus and he sings me lullabies!~Unknown
