Heaven's Littlest Angels

Folder: 
Grief & Grieving

I talk about my children,

the four here down on earth.

But there are 3 more babies,

that I never did birth.



They were with me for awhile,

I held them deep inside.

But then they had to go to Heaven,

and oh how hard I cried.



Two went very early,

one left at sixteen weeks.

But the pain was always relentless,

it made me very meek.



To feel a life inside you,

then they tell you its no more.

Has to be the hardest blow,

life ever has in store.



The names were picked out,

and little outfits bought.

And then to have to learn,

it was only all for naught.



Although my arms never held,

my little ones within.

I gave my aching up to God,

and let the healing begin.



I see them there in Heaven,

if only in my mind.

With little wings and happy smiles.

is how I think of them all the time.



They're Heavens Littlest Angels,

and its now a better place.

Someday I'll get to be with them,

and finally kiss each tiny face.
