I understand! I lost my baby seventy-two hours after his birth. So much the same as a stillborn baby. We never know what they might have become. But, remember, if you believe, you will be with him someday.

Thank you for your wonderful and heartfelt comments, very much appreciated****kahpot
Comment from Gloria ....
A stillborn birth is a sorrowful occasion and one that is to be treated with respect. Yes, the parents mourn, as those nine months in preparation were involved in deep love.
A most unique and well written entry into this contest, and I wish you great luck with the Committee.

You have made effective use of your fifteen syllables to describe a heartbreaking situation--to carry the baby full-term, the lose him/her.

Comment from June Sargent
That has got to be such a devastating experience for parents of a stillborn child. To wait 9 months for a seed to grow and never actually seeing it bloom. A touching piece in 15 syllables.

Comment from AnnaLinda
kahpot,
I hope this 15 syllable poem was not inspired by a personal experience.
Well, there you go again...rhyme and near rhyme included as well as an
impacting message.
Great presentation as well. I had to take a second look at the artwork.
Nicely done,
Anna

Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear kahpot, This poem is a beautiful tribute to your stillborn child. The picture you found is absolutely beautiful because she sits between the two of you, as an angel.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
Well done. This captures exceedingly well the absolute sadness and loss experienced by parents of the potential not realized--a still-born child. My mother had several pregnancies that did not come to fruition and I can only sadly imagine how she must've felt. Thank you for sharing these devastatingly real to so many sad experiences.

Thank you Jesse, yes it would be devastating for those parents, as always very much appreciated****kahpot

Yes, it would be...
I am glad you liked my review. Obviously, I assume the author has experienced these in one way or another. It works better for me if I do. If I assume everything written is fiction, it deprives me of the best experience possible.
