Intertwined

A network of delicate threads,
like lace,
between the two of you.


One who was,
One who is.
A child lost,
A child gained.
A beauty shared that no one else
will truly understand.


A sister you will never meet
here,
So tightly woven to you,
her existance you will always know.


Beauty upon beauty,
Love upon love,
Where one thread ends,
Another begins.
Different,
yet the same.

So glad you are back. Beautiful poem. I have been praying for you and am delighted to hear the morning sickness is coming to an end.
PS. I have actually been getting up with that dreaded alarm that goes off so darn early! OK, not everyday...but some days!

I am so happy to see that you are expecting again. Ryan and I lost our little girl at 24 weeks gestation on April 20th. I have been devestated, but we will try again. I can only imagine what you have been through with the loss of your little Emily, but I am happy to see the ray of sunshine enter your lives again.
All our best...

very beautiful... I remember your other post of you talking to Emily and asking her if it would be ok to have another baby and then you finding out you were pregnant that week (or something along those lines).. this is a sweet poem to remember them to each other..

God bless!

Oh, I've been here~in this place of missing a daughter and carrying a womb baby. Such conflicting emotions!
