Tim Ryerson Poet Monorhyme

Life Is What You Make It

Born: March 8th 2014

Who would assume
she could never bloom
Who would assume
she could leave so soon
Who would assume
such doom could loom
that a life giving womb
would turn to a tomb...

Died: March 6th 2014

Dedicated to Kloe Faith Reno and my precious granddaughter in law Veronica and grandson Jacob who have lost 2 babies in less than 2 years. The first was a ‘simple’ miscarriage, but the second baby Veronica carried for almost 7 months.

Margaret Franceschini March 18, 2014 at 9:06 AM as soon as I began reading your poem I felt the suffering of losing a child, I too lost two from my womb When losing my Mother, I always said that the giver of my life has lost her life. Your poem also reminds me of her. It's the kind of poem that anyone can reach in a take the words and apply to their own personal hurt. thank you for composing for us.
