None of these poems are perfect enough,
For A little baby who’s mommy misses so much.
The words just don’t seem to be right,
They don’t ease my pain or make my heavy burden
light.
They aren’t right on paper or in my head,
Because mommy can’t deal with the fact her little
one’s dead.
You see precious one, mommy’s really sad and
upset,
My little one’s gone and I can’t move on yet.
My baby had toes, eyes, feet and ears,
Every time I remember I shed tear after tear.
The doctors listened and looked,
And said, “We’ve stared hard at his heart and it
just won’t beat.”
See the doctors couldn’t be right,
My baby’s not gone he’s just fallen asleep.
We sat and we looked, but you never woke up to
tell mommy hello,
To say mommy I’m here, please don’t give up hope,
don’t let me go.
No movement or sound to say mom I’m okay,
So they took you from me, they took you away.
Night after night, and day after day, mommy can’t
got to sleep,
Mommy can’t say goodbye, she doesn’t believe,
That mommy’s little baby’s in heaven and it’s now
time to grieve,
For the loss of her baby she never could see.
Don’t think mommy does not love you or miss you so bad,
Mommy still loves you, mommy’s so very, very sad.
See you’ll always be my little baby that I carried
inside,
I love you so much, you’re my joy and my pride.
Baby, mommy is trying to tell you she loves you,
But there are no words to say,
How much your mommy will miss you day after day.
These words still just aren’t nearly perfect
enough,
For the little
baby who’s mommy misses so much.
A note to my
little one:
"Be sweet little one, sleep tight and goodnight,
if you can't go to bed ask God to leave on a small light.
Mommy will see you soon, you don't have to be scared,
if you need me little one, mommy's heart is with you, I'm always right
there."
