This s a reflection of all the :might have beens" had my child survived.
What Manner of Woman What manner of woman would you have become Child of mine, love of my life Would you have been the beauty that shone Through the throes of puberty Retaining a lively wit and comic antics Long since lost, yet still mourned Would your quick intelligent mind Grow ever brighter, tempered by maturity, Enhancing both beauty and ardor for those who loved you What manner of man would you have chosen to love Who would have loved you in return Would your children be so fortunate To be as you were, so nearly perfect Full of life, intensity and naive trust What manner of woman would you have become Child of mine, love of my life As the scars on my soul fade slowly But refuse to fully heal I can only wonder

A soulful expression, Micki, surely sharing more the depth of your pain at the loss of your dear Noelle.

I see this poem was written but one week after your posting of your poem "Heartache." I hope your continued writing eases the acute intensity of your pain, even as your readers share in your emotional journey.

micki, your words are so beautiful and give such tribute to your lost child, sometimes it is so hard to let go, i know i have the same feelings for my mother and friend. cherish her and pay as much tribute as your heart desires, that is the love we feel that will never die, even after the mourning and pain have subsided.
love and hugs

Hello Micki,

Your poem speaks so eloquently of a mother's heart and longing,
for truly the umbilical cord that connects mother and child is never
truly cut. Great poem!
