I thought our wedding day was the best, as our forever love we expressed; until the day that we found out, baby was coming- we were full of joy! But, then to find out we would have a boy, there was no doubt, no doubt! We painted his nursery room with blue, each day, our anticipation grew; and we bought him cute boy play toys, his room ready and just awaiting him. Oh, then one morning pain from limb to limb, my screams the joy destroys. We buried him in his christening gown, with blue booties- joy now a frown; in sea blue tears we drown. _____________________ July 20, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/Our "Baby" Blue Boy Copyright Protected, ID 18- 1044-546-01 All Rights Reserved.

Your beautiful poem relates the kind of devastating pain no parent should ever have to endure. My poor mom's last baby only lived 25 minutes. I look forward to meeting my baby sister in heaven if I am allowed in. I am sorry you had to experience such pain Constance. xxoo

Horrible experience, a lady friend of mine has experienced it twice, we are all praying third time lucky. Fine write, Constance, will do well. Viv x
