Longing To Cradle

Longing to cradle Another appointment Another nurse Another blood test This ain't the first Another gown Another scan Another tear This wasn't the plan Another tablet Another needle Another fake smile Hiding the pain I feel Another heart broke Another tear shed Another "let's keep going" But I just hide in my bed Another fresh day Another prayer to keep strong Another baby embryo unfrozen To be put back were it belongs My baby I'll wait for as long as it takes With you in my arms there will be no more heartbreaks

Dominique Ryan, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
