Grief Poem
I wrote a poem in response to a request from a mother who lost her child. Since then I have decided to share it with any parent out there who has lost a child. May this bring comfort to you
Sometimes
Sometimes I catch a glimpse,
In softened waves of blue
My child, my heart …when I see a smile
I can’t help but think of you
Sometimes these waves fill oceans.
And feelings string on every shore
A collections of each memory
And every way I wish for more
Sometimes I watch for answers
Because each day I call to you
I ask for faith and courage
And strength …to help me through
Sometimes I ask for bravery
Like dolphins in the deep
Because time moves oh so slowly
And some times the road is steep
Sometimes I want to scream
This was not what I had planned
Why you ever suffered
A mom can’t understand
Sometimes I hear your laughter
And remember you at play
But My Child I always miss you
Not sometimes, but everyday
In softened waves of blue
My child, my heart …when I see a smile
I can’t help but think of you
Sometimes these waves fill oceans.
And feelings string on every shore
A collections of each memory
And every way I wish for more
Sometimes I watch for answers
Because each day I call to you
I ask for faith and courage
And strength …to help me through
Sometimes I ask for bravery
Like dolphins in the deep
Because time moves oh so slowly
And some times the road is steep
Sometimes I want to scream
This was not what I had planned
Why you ever suffered
A mom can’t understand
Sometimes I hear your laughter
And remember you at play
But My Child I always miss you
Not sometimes, but everyday
