Grief Poems - Loss Of A Child - A Parents Prayer

A Parents Prayer
(Grief Poems - Loss Of A Child)

Dear God,
You sent a child to me
To fill my life with joy,
And only You knew which was best-
A little girl or boy.

Somehow I took for granted, Lord,
That we would have a lifetime,
And I made so many future plans
For that precious child of mine.

Enchanted by that Miracle,
Caught up in each new day,
I guess I didn’t hear You, Lord,
When You said, “This one can’t stay.”

I trust you, Lord. Thy will; not mine,
Yet I can’t understand
This sudden loss-the emptiness-
Caused by another’s hand.

I know my child’s an angel now
But my heart is aching so.
I’m sorry I wasn’t ready, Lord,
To let my baby go.

There wasn’t time for one last hug;
There was no final kiss.
Oh God, it’s all those special smiles
That I already miss.

So Lord, could you do just one thing
For me especially?
Please hold my angel close to You
And say goodbye for me.

Amen

These Are My Footprints
(Loss Of Baby)

These are my footprints,
so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints
never touched the ground at all.

Not one tiny footprint,
for now I have wings.
These tiny footprints
were meant for other things.

You will hear my tiny footprints,
in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel’s tears,
of joy and not from pain.

You will see my tiny footprints,
in each butterflies’ lazy dance.
I’ll let you know I’m with you,
if you just give me the chance.

You will see my tiny footprints,
in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind,
and call each one that grieves.

Most of all, these tiny footprints,
are found on Mommy heart.
‘Cause even though I’m gone now,
We’ll never truly part.

Grief Poems - Baby - Goodbye My Little One

Goodbye My Little One
(Grief Poems - Loss Of Baby)

How can I say goodbye
when I never said hello,
Why does my heart grieve
for the one I’ll never know?

You were a part of me
for just a little while.
I grieve because I’ll never see
the magic in your smile.

I grieve for all the unsaid words
that you will never get to say.
I grieve that I will never see
you happily at play.

I grieve for all the lullabies
that will remain unsung.
I grieve because I’ll never see
your face gleaming like the sun.

I grieve because you will never know
the comfort of my touch.
I grieve because you will never know
that you were loved so much.

I grieve for all the tomorrows
that will never be.
I grieve because God chose
to take you back from me.

You live among the angels now
Your earthly mission done,
You will be so dearly missed
Goodbye my little one.
