My Dear Mother:
I did not die young.
I lived my span of life
Within your body
And within your love.
There are many
Who have lived long lives
And have not been loved as me.
If you would honour me
Then speak my name
And number me among your family.
If you would honour me
Then strive to live in love
For, in this love, I live.
Never ever doubt
That we will meet again.
Until that happy day
I will grow with God
And wait for you.

That's such a nice poem. Hope you are doing well! I've been kinda absent lately b/c things have been so busy around my parts.
Beautiful poem! I came across your blog through Small Bird Studio. I'm so sorry for the loss of your daughter Faith and all that you guys have been through. I look forward to following your journey and hope that IVF brings you your rainbow baby. My husband & I went through IVF about a year ago and I remember distinctly what an emotionally & physically grueling process it is. Wishing you strength and continued hope on your journey ((hugs))
Love the new look! Wonderful!!! And I love the floating butterfly effect!
