Constance La France Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

New Beginnings - a Shardoma

I held him,
perfect but stone cold,
my baby,
I was lost,
veiled in haze, consumed-  and then,
a new beginning.

Paul Callus January 11, 2016 at 3:26 PM Very sad...I can understand, but I will never know what a mother truly goes through when something tragic like this happens.

Jan Allison January 1, 2016 at 4:42 PM Oh broken Wings this is so tragic:-( hugs Jan xx Constance La France January 4, 2016 at 9:15 AM Jan, thank you for your compassion, there is nothing more tragic than caring a baby within for nine months and then having nothing at the end, but an empty soul, and a sorrow that is forever, and in my case it happened two times... Jan Allison January 1, 2016 at 5:14 PM Oh Broken Wings my heart weeps for you:-( When I was doing my nursery nurse training the nursery teacher had a stillborn baby she never ever got over it in fact I've just tired to google her name after reading your poem but I cant trace her:-( hugs Jan xx Constance La France January 1, 2016 at 5:11 PM Jan, I was shattered, but somehow I have an inner strength within me, I would have liked to write more about it but the form limits it, but I will share a bit here, I asked if I could hold him before they put him in his little coffin and I sat in a quiet room just me and him for awhile, then I folded my petals around me and withdrew from the world ~

Eve Roper January 1, 2016 at 1:00 AM O:-) Angel. That watches over you Hugs Constance La France January 1, 2016 at 3:37 PM Eve, yes my little angel up above, I have two of them, thanks for visiting ~
