My Poem PagesText Box: A cute little bundle
 
A cute little bundle 
All wrapped up with love
A present from heaven
Sent from above
Skin soft as velvet
Heart filled with gold
Eyes sparkling like diamonds
A dream to unfold
Hair made from silk
Smile bright like the sun
Your cute little bundle
A new life begun

Text Box: A hug
 
A hug is priceless
A hug from a loved one or a friend says they are there for you without words
A hug from a stranger acknowledges that you need support
Without them needing to know the details
When tears are flowing and I retreat
I don’t want you to look away because you don’t understand
I need to you be with me and hold my hand
I don’t always need you to speak
Just be there
Be there and say nothing but open your arms
When I am sad sometimes there are no words of comfort
They say flowers say a thousand words
A hug says a million
A hug is priceless

Text Box: A Wish
 
If I could be granted a wish
A dream that could come true
I’d wish for a lifetime of yesterdays
That I could spend with you
I’d wrap you in my love
And comfort you in my arms
I’d fight off any evil
And keep you safe from harm
I’d tell you all the things
You never got to hear
I’d make a million memories
To hold of you so dear
I’d make the clock tick slower
To buy us lots more time
A magical cure for all your troubles
The doctors I’d help find
I’d paint a beautiful picture of you
Upon my fragile mind
So the days I’m lost in despair
My way home I could find
If I could be granted a wish
A dream that could come true
I’d wish for a lifetime of yesterdays
That I could spend with you.

Text Box: Angel wings
 
One night when I was sleeping
An angel took my hand
She asked if I would help her
I didn’t understand
I went with her to heaven
Where she handed me a gift
I opened it with interest
And suddenly felt a lift
Inside the present was fluffy and white
It sparkled with fairy dust
And angel delight
There were feathers escaping
Up into the sky
Then all of a sudden
I learned how to fly
The gift that the angel
Had given to me
Was my own set of angel wings
So I could be free.

Text Box: As I sit and wonder
 
As I sit and wonder
I wish upon a star
That if I close my eyes
I could be where you are
We could once again be happy
And in my arms you’d be
Everything would be different
You would stay with me
I would see you smile and grow
In my heart I’d feel a glow
All that you were and all that you’d be
The perfect angel for all to see

Text Box: Beneath the mask
 
I wear a mask to protect me
So no one else can see
The pain that I am suffering
Since my baby had to leave me
 
People ask how I am 
I tell them I am fine
But beneath the mask I am heart broken
And crying all the time
 
Beneath my mask I am lonely
With just my thoughts and me
Of all the memories we never shared
And all that should have been
 
My mask helps me seem normal
It helps me to fit in
People only see the mask
And cannot see within
 
If they do not see me crying 
And they do not see me sad
I won’t have to feel guilty 
For making them feel bad
 
Sometimes the mask is choking
Its difficult to breathe
I want to leave the mask behind
I just want to be me.

Text Box: Dear Mummy
 
I know you didn’t want me to go
You wanted me to stay and grow
I know you didn’t want me to leave
And because I did, now you must grieve.
If only you could see it here, then you would understand
When I left you there that day the angels took my hand
I didn’t want to go with them, but instead to stay with you
I tried to tell the angels that I wanted daddy too
They led me up to heaven, and showed me through the door
They showed me this fantastic place I had never dreamed before
The skies are filled with sunshine, not a drop of rain
The air is filled with laughter, no suffering or pain
There is no fear of bullying, any violence or crime
We have no war or poverty here, we are happy all the time
The angels are loving and giving, no harsh words ever said
I even grew some angel wings and have a cloud to lay my head
I wanted to say thank you for loving me enough
To send me here to be an angel I know it must be tough
You didn’t let me suffer for any length of time
Now in the arms of other angels I will be just fine
Although you cannot see me now I haven’t gone too far
When you look into the night I am the brightest star
I’ll be here waiting until one day when
You join me in heaven and we’ll be together again.

Text Box: I am so glad you were here
 
All my wishes granted
The day that you were born
Your tiny face looked up at mine
With a cry, a stretch, a yawn
Your tiny fingers
And tiny toes
Dark black hair
And squishy round nose
A beautiful baby
Skin so soft to touch
My perfect daughter
Who I love so much
I grieve for your smile
I long to hold your near
Although my heart is broken
I am so glad you were here

Text Box: Falling
Deep down we fall to unknown
Rotating, dropping, sinking
Then all is still once more.

NextBackText Box: These are my poems I have been writing the past few months. Having never written poetry before I suddenly had an urge to write and haven't stopped. I have surprised myself at how well they have come out and feel very proud of them! I have also found it a huge release to get some of my feelings out and straight away started to feel better in myself for doing so. I would recommend writing poetry to anyone now, it is fantastic therapy!
My aim now is to somehow get the poems published, possibly in a book, then donate most or all of the proceeds to Children's Hospital Oxford where we hope to name a room after Jazmin!
Happy reading... if you wish to use my poems on any other site please email me first as it is only polite!! I would also ask that you give me the credit for writing them! 
Many Thanks
Toni x
