For those mum's who have an angel baby

[Bel03]

[h=6]I thought of you and closed my eyes,
And prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother,
And I know I heard him say:
A mother has a baby,
This we know is true.
But, God, can you be a mother,
When your baby's not with you?
Yes, you can he replied,
With confidence in his voice.
I give many women babies,
When they leave is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime,
And others for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
But theres no need to stay.
I just don't understand this God,
I want my baby here.
He took a breath and cleared his throat,
And then I saw a tear.
I wish that I could show you,
What your child is doing today,
If you could see your child smile,
With other children who say:
We go to earth and learn our lessons,
Of love and life and fear.
My mummy loved me oh so much,
I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a mum,
Who had so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My mummy set me free.
I miss my mummy oh so much,
But I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep,
On her pillow's where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek,
And whisper in her ear.
"Mummy don't be sad today, I'm your baby and I'm here."
So you see my dear sweet one,
Your children are Ok.
Your babies are here in My home,
They'll be at heavens gate for you.
So now you see what makes a mother.
It's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of,
Right from the very start.
Though some on earth may not realize you are a mother,
until their time is done.
They'll be up here with Me one day,
And you'll know that you're the best one![/h]

you just have to love the illusions and delusions the brain creates for us

Im not sure if you are being disrespectful or not, but if so, that is just a little sad considering the circumstance. You dont have to believe in religion to get benefit from holding onto hope. I am by far religious, however hope is a very great thing regardless!

regardless .... there is no need for such a comment on the topic at hand .... if you dont like it just dont post very simple ... it was a heart felt post .... is there really any need to tarnish it!

A very touching poem. Absolutely brilliant. Very heartbreaking, but just as beautiful.

Thank you. This isnt about believing in god, it is more so about having hope, & when it comes to hoping you can one day see your baby again, well it helps ease a bit of the pain. As i said, i am not a religious person, but i have plenty of hope. I know i am not alone on here, & i thought it would be nice for those other mum's to also have some hope.

and to which point do you think I was referring?, whilst I do personally find the belief in religion silly beyond all measure, that's not what I was commenting on.
and there is always need for comment, or would you rather a fairy wonderland in which you can delude yourself into simply having every one agree with you and no one ever dissents?

my comment was upon love it's self, especially the love of a baby/child, while it is totally real to us as humans, emotionally, it doesn't exist in the scheme of the universe (except for those who are of the religious belief of course)

now, I'm not saying this as a negative, not at all, love is a wonderful thing, no argument, but it only has reference to us, as individuals, it's not a universal constant and it's different for every single one of us, and when it comes to children, it's a biological imperative boarding on insanity.

it's a most interesting aspect to us

and I never said I didn't like the poem frogs, when ever made you think so? you're all so quick to jump off the deep end I swear! sheesh! you're doing exactly what you're complaining of!

 

[melissagalea2]

i have a angel baby so i think the poem was very touching, but beatufiul . thanx for sharing.

 

[Bel03]

Recharge, i dont think 'expecting' everyone to agree with me is what i aim for at all.......but on the topic of losing a child........what exactly do you feel you need to disagree with? My feelings? That is kinda ridiculous if you think about it! I wouldnt even begin to try argue with any parent who has suffered such a loss......you have no chance!

Sorry for your loss Melissa! Hugs to you xx

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

Thank you Bel... I was feeling my loss particularly strongly today and this was just what i needed!

Recharge, you have baffled me with your intelligence.

 

[IgotFrogs]

This isn't a subject to fight and argue about If you've lost a baby / child its just not ....

 

[Bel03]

Thank you Bel... I was feeling my loss particularly strongly today and this was just what i needed!

A little bit of hope, in the heart of all the pain, goes a really long way. Which was exactly what i hoped others could also feel. There will always be those tough days, you lost someone you shouldnt have had too, having hope just helps get you through until the next good day! Thinking of you NTLS xx

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

You are so right Bel. In some ways I count myself lucky that I never got to meet my angel babies, but it doesnt take away the fact that they were with me, even if just for a short period of time.

Lucky for me the majority of my days are made good when i look at Matilda and realise that her brothers and sisters made way for her to enter the world. I suppose in a way she is my real Angel child, sent to earth to remind me just how lucky i really am

i thought i would share this one i wrote many years ago now ....

The Angels Cried .....

The Angels cried the night they took you away
For they knew it was with us
You would have rather stayed
But for some reason this is the way it had to be
Oh my god how I wish it could have been me
I shall miss you forever and a day
Long for you with every ounce of my being
To care and give you love
No misleading
You have baby brothers now you know
I know how you would have loved them so
I talk of you to them
Yes you will be apart of them
I remember the night the angels cried
It will be forever within my mind
‘Tis almost four years since they came
To take our baby boy away
The Angels cried on the day I gave birth to you
It was in the form of rain
Then they cried the night they took you away


My darling son how I wish this would never have been
And how I wish you were still here with me
But I see this wasn’t to be
And even thou your not here with me
You’re still within my heart my mind
I shall love you for all time
Just every now and again I think of this time
The night
The Angels cried.
Written for my darling son
Nicholas James


You will always be missed
my darling baby boy

[Bel03]

Yes being blessed still with real life walking talking angels definately helps also!

Idiotfrogs that is amazingly beautiful! I am so sorry you had to lose your little man, but i am sure he would be proud of who you are today!

perhaps I misunderstood the original post, for it's simply a poem, at no point does the poster state they have actually lost a child, or anything else, it's just a poem (if a rather emotive one)
and I have not stated or inferred I disagree with anything, it's others who jumped on me stating they disagree with my post, even though they don't seem to have gotten what it was aimed at *sigh* nor would I ever try to argue with someone who's lost a child, it's a very personal loss which nothing else can compare with.

Recharge, you have baffled me with your intelligence.

you're not the first to state that I'm afraid.
in some respects I'm overly logical most of the time, and I rationalise a great deal to do with life, human experience and emotion.

I sympathise with the ops loss and commiserate with them.
life is hard and pain filled, this aspect should be cherished to some degree, because without it there is no reference to joy and happiness, one paints the other in stark relief.
