Just thought I'd share these two poems with you girls.....Although guarenteed to make you shed a tear, they are comforting in the sense that although we have lost our babies..........they are still with us.....in a way.
Whenever you are feeling sad
Or kind of baby blue
Remember that youre not alone
Ill always be with you
Although I know it makes you sad
That I had to depart
As long as there is love
Ill be living in your heart
Whenever you remember me
With happiness and love
The angels sing me lullabyes
In heaven and above
And though you cannot hold me
Or brush and comb my hair,
Do not doubt for a minute
That I am still right there.
For I am with you always,
In the shadows of your mind,
And if you look around you
Its me that you will find
Im the one that pulls your heartstrings
When you here a baby cry,
Im the one that lifts your spirits
On wings of a butterfly
Im the one who blows you kisses
On a warm summer breeze
Im the who whispers in your ears
In the sighing of the trees
Its me that you hear laughing
In a bubbly mountain brook
Yes,I am all around you
Wherever you may look

WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes, all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry, the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things, we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me, I know you miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand;
And said my place was ready, in heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind, all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
For my life had not long started, and I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much to learn and do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the times to come, the good one's and the bad,
I thought of all the love we'd share, it made me feel so sad.
If I could spend just one day, or even a little while,
I'd tell you how I love you, and I'd show you my big smile.
But then I fully realised, that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories, would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven's gates, I felt so much at home,
When God looked down and smiled at me, upon his golden throne.
"This is eternity he said, and all I've promised you,
Today for life on earth is passed, but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day, there's no longing for the past.
My child you was to special, I had to set you free,
So won't you take my loving hand, and share my life with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me, mummy don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart.
Whenever you are feeling sad
