Im not used to posting in this section, but id better get used to it. I was just wondering if any of you ladies are willing to share with me poems you used at your babies funerals or share and poems you like.

My baby boy died at 12 days old so I want a poem that will fit with this. I find it hard to find a suitable one, he didnt have a long life but he wasnt stillborn and there doesnt seem to be any poems out there for the 'inbetween' age. He died due to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome

Thank you in advance for any help.

I am so sorry sweetie

Im still looking about for you, but I found this one and thought it was nice....

Every day I watch you
Tears flowing down your Cheeks
Silent Sobbing, Broken Heart
No words can bring Relief

Every Day I hold your hand
And whisper that Im here
I know that you cant hear me
But Mum, Im always near

Every day I blow you kisses
From the Fluffy Clouds
I send a kiss for Daddy too
I know I make him proud

Every day I send a sign
To show I love you so
I try to make you smile for me
Instead of feeling Low

Every day I smile at you
For all that you have done
To keep my precious memory alive
Im so glad your my mum

Ill keep looking....

Hi My thoughts are with you and your family , I know what a awful time you are having. A few poems I find comfort in are

If I could visit heaven
even for a day
Maybe for a moment
my pain would go away
I'd put my arms around you
and whisper words so true
That living life without you
sure is hell to do
No matter how I spend my days
no matter what I do
No morning dawns or evening falls
when I don,t think of you.




This is for someone wonderful
As loved as one could be
For you were everything in life
You meant the world to me
And sometimes life can be unkind
When hearts are torn in two
But nothing ever could compare
To the pain of losing you
But all the love you left behind
Forever will live on
And so until we meet again
Rest peacefully
My little one xx





Time spent with you
Was so very precious
Even if only for a very short time
I hold a special memory
Close inside this heart of mine
To me you were very special
Much more than words can say
I still love you now little angel
And I'll remember you every day.*


:This one is my favourite as I read it at Callums funeral:

A Special Angel

There's a special Angel in Heaven
thats is a part of me
It is not where I wanted him
but where God wanted him to be.
He was here but just a moment
like a nighttime shooting star.
And though he is in Heaven
he isn't very far.
He touched the heart of many
like only an Angel can do.
We held him every minute
for the end we all knew.
So I send this special message
to the Heaven up above.
Please take care of my Angel
and send him all my love.


I'll Carry You In My Heart
Why God takes the little ones
I swear I'll never know
You had so much life to live
It just wasn't time to go.
*
For comfort, now, I think of you
With tiny little wings
Up above, in a beautiful place,
Listening to angels sing.
You'll never know the pain I feel
The hurt you left behind
Oh, what I wouldn't give to hold you one more time...

I carried you in my womb,
Then I carried you in my arms
And now, until it no longer beats
I'll carry you in my heart...
-Jan Todd

Hope the day goes aswell as it could be, feel free to PM If you want to I have a few quotes and poems that I use in a scrap book in memory of my baby I too found it hard finding poems and songs in time for the funeral. I found alot of stuff after the funeral such as a song called "precious child" which is beautiful, its on youtube .

It's time to say goodbye
and we don't understand why
today is the day we lay
our little man to rest
everyone knows he was the best
he was our miracle our dream come true
and we are here to comfort you
though today we say goodbye
just remember he never really dies
for in our hearts his spirit lies
if he could talk I know he'd say
mommy daddy please don't cry
for I am not gone imp flying high
imp that brand new twinkle in the sky
I know one day I'll see you again
and until then
hold your heads up high
and just remember imp standing by
for imp the light of the moon
and the sunlight in the sky
so please be strong and it won't be long
till we're together again
love your little man

I am so very sorry for your loss...

I have written this about my miscarriage,its kind of a song:

"Heya sugarplum only I can see you
In your bleeding dress & the violets in your hair
Nobody can understand
Nobody's listening to the whisperings
Softest noises swirling around the branches
Heya they tell me I don't have a big D
Always makes me think of daisies
No flowers of the underworld inside me
Does that mean I cannot sing to you now

Lonely Ghost you're not alone
I let my spark in those woods
hands on my ears
they won't make me forget you
Like you never existed
Lonely Ghost I love you

Hey Sweetie pie only I can tell you
The way I felt your soul
I will never forget
The way you made me feel
I miss you dear as the day goes by
They keep talking as nothing happened
I remember the snow she smiled under water
I remember her portrait as my precious secret
little bird fly in the silence you know where to meet in dreams

Heya April my little pumpkin
you're here with me
I can see your foot steps in the clouds
heya pumkin
one day we'll laugh together behind the fairy door
In the woods "

I wish I could help write a poem for your little soul but it's so personal
you know maybe you dont think of you as a poet, but you could just write how you feel
rhyme or not
just writing your love and light to him to wave goodbye

I am sending you my blessings and empathy

this is the poem I carry around with me for my own daughter who died suddenly aged 6 weeks:-

Although we didn't get the chance,
to take your tiny hand
And lead you through the
childhood which together
we had planned

And though there really wasn't
chance to show you all the love
Now sent to you abundantly
borne upwards by the dove

Remember, Darling that
your tiny heart must know
That we will always treasure you
and your memory will grow



I'm so sorry for your tragic loss xxx
