Now a little angel.

I don’t have anything
to remember you by
not a picture not a clothing
not even a favorite plaything.
Don’t even have a memory
of your face, of your feel, of your touch.
Not even a tiny kick
or even a heartbeat.
Coz you were so little still
To kick inside me,
for us to hear a heartbeat.
You were gone then.

But I have the memory of my happiness
The moment I knew
I was going to have another baby….
YOU!

    Thank you for your kind comments. I wrote this in 2002 after the miscarriage. Felt like sharing it just now.

    It’s a very touching poem, Dulce. I felt tears well up in my eyes. She is indeed an angel and it was a privilege and a blessing for you to have carried one to experience a miracle inside you.
