This is for you

 I post regularly on message boards on this website called TheBump.com. There, I would post on Trying To Get Pregnant or Trouble Trying To Conceive..then I moved to 1st Trimester and January 2012 Mom's Board...I have since moved to the Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss Board and eventually will also post on Trying to Conceive After a Loss...

The boards are a great place to ask questions, opinions and offer or receive great support from women all over..I decided to check my "inbox" on TheBump and I received two messages this past week from two Jan 2012 mom's...one bumpie (thats what we call other posters :) She sent me this poem and a message of condolences, in the subject line of her message it read, "This is for you", it was...it touched me, of course I cried..but it's just beautiful...thank you Saralu82! I deeply appreciate this..:

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 thier 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 mommy loved me oh so much,

I got to come straight here.

I feel so lucky to have a mom,

Who had so much love for me.

I learned my lessons very quickly,

My mommy set me free.

I miss my mommy 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.

"Mommy 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!
