Today we celebrated my lovely friends daughter Mia’s first angel birthday. I wrote this poem for them.
Mia Mia Ballerina
It’s been one year since your earthly presence
You came to bless your parents
You sent them so much love
You came to show them how strong they are
You came to dance through their lives forever
Mia Mia Ballerina
You are one of a kind
I know you feel the love from your parents
For they have shown it each day since you left
Caring for so many
Being a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on
The terrible jokes your daddy makes
They put a smile on many a face
The nurturing care your mother gives
So freely to those who are in need
Mia Mia Ballerina
Your pretty face is captured in time
A beautiful painting on the wall
You will be remembered
We have been blessed to meet your spirit
Mia Mia Ballerina
Your mummy and daddy will celebrate you
They will live in your honour
They will share your love with all
While many tears will still be shed
Memories of you will be cherished always
Moments with you never forgotten
We sat around the campfire under the stars and I read the poem out. I could feel so much love emanating from everyone in the circle. It was a special day and night. I know Hamish and Mia would have been up there having their own party.
I Am Still Born
