Couple of poems my wife ran across
1.
They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way I feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried,
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.
2.
We couldn't wait to hold you
And see your pretty face.
To count you little fingers,
And check your toes are in their place.
It should have been the happiest day
To remember all our life.
But joy had turned to heartache,
No breath, no beat, no life.
We will never see you smile,
Or hear your hearty cry.
We will never be able to dry your tears,
Or share your happy times.
Our precious little Angel,
We will always know your face.
In our hearts and stars forever,
You will always have a place

Richard,
I am reading a book written by a friend of a friend Titled
“By Grief Transformed”
Dreams and the mourning process
By Susan Olsen
In one of the chapters she quotes
Anne McCracken and Mary Semel from their work “A Broken Heart Still Beats”
“Mary and I have come to believe that comfort, such as it is, derives from recognizing that others before us, many others have felt this very pain, struggle with the same questions, and reluctantly have given up the lives they too have counted on. In this sense, misery does love company. It is not that we wish this pain on anyone, not Winston Churchill or Samuel Clemens, who both lost daughters; or Robert Frost, who incredibly lost four of his six children. However, we do welcome the painful truth that they were once as devastated as we, and yet found the courage to stay productive in this world. That Robert Frost got out of bed every morning, let alone wrote notable poetry, is nothing short of inspiring.”

Sleep dear ones......
