Pieces of My Motherhood


Real heartbeat
Unique DNA
My Luke Shiloh

A new name
He gave me
"Mother"

Only 6 weeks
Too soon with Jesus
Missed all my life

Another heartbeat
Unique DNA
My Lily Katherine

Memories held dear
Pregnancy to birth
My first-born

40 glorious weeks
Sacred and sweet
Beautiful girl missed

A not-yet heartbeat
Unique DNA
My hoped-for baby

I pray more than weeks
But a lifetime to raise
His will be done

All my babies -
First child of my heart,
First-born,
Future first-to-raise -
Irreplaceable pieces of my motherhood
