Tears on our cheeks
Breath held short
Babe grown whole
No beat on earth
Skipped this world
Whole and perfect
Sitting at the feet
But here and now
Flooding with pain
Hope never lost
Truth bringing comfort
Peace hovers near
Love surrounds
Strength overshadows

Michelle,
This is beautiful. Thanks for writing and sharing with us. "Truth bringing comfort" - "Peace hovers near" - "Love surrounds" - makes me think of life and all the ups and downs we have.

This poem is like hope in the face of loss/fear. It's beautiful.
Thank you for your comments - a lot of personal emotion was poured into this poem.
Breathtaking, Michelle! Just beautiful.
very lovely poem...love the last line
Great poem, Michelle. I can tell it's very personal to you.
I think of a baby gone before birth. That's exactly what it felt like many years ago.
Very touching and emotional.

That was so gentle and perfect.
So true. So many women can relate.
