4 joo!
I found this poem on another post and thought it was really good
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 doesnt make mistakes.
But that wont 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'll 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
take care

These are my tiny footprints, so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints, never touched the ground at all.
Not one tiny footprint, for now I have my 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 tears, of joy and not from pain.
You will see my tiny footprints, in each butterfly's lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you, if you give me just a 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 in Mummy's heart
Because even though I'm gone now, we'll never truly part

My Mum she tells a lot of lies,
She never did before,
But from now until she dies,
She'll tell a whole lot more.
Ask my Mum how she is,
And because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie,
Because she can't describe the pain.
Ask my Mum How she is,
She'll say 'I'm alright'
If that's the truth, then tell me,
Why does she cry each night?
Ask my Mum how she is,
She seems to cope so well,
She didn't have a choice you see,
Nor the strength to yell.
Ask my Mum how she is,
'I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping'
For God's sake Mum, just tell the truth,
Just say your heart is broken.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine,
But if you ask her how she is,
She'll lie and say she's fine.
I am here in Heaven,
I cannot hug from here,
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold,
I'll say 'You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told!'
I can't bring myself to read your lovely poems yet as I know I will start crying again - but they are appreciated and I will read them soon.
Love Joo xxx
