A poem I wrote about miscarriage (CC)


Recommended Posts

I have been feeling sorrowful today, mourning the miscarriage of my baby in June. I felt lead to share this poem I wrote the day after it happened, in hopes that it may comfort others who have experienced this loss. When I see others with their precious children and yearn earnestly for a child of my own, I am comforted by knowing that God has a plan for my life, and will bless me with children when His time is right.

 

Though I weep and mourn

For this child not born,

This small one I carried

Who could not be buried,

Has found release and perfect peace—

Not sleeping at his mother’s breast

But with his Father finding rest.

:grouphug: We have a baby in the Father's tender care, too. Praying that His peace will enfold you, Andrea. Your poem is lovely.
