Guardian Angel

Missing image


I am here....can you feel me
breathing warmth into your small
heart....

I am here...touching your tiny hand
hoping for a reflex to soothe
me...

I am here......heart pounding
with adrenalin... praying silently
that someone can hear...

I am here....breathing again
till the next time.......

I am here...years on.. looking back
and thanking whoever was watching
over you....

Never letting you go....even though
the Angels came and left.. empty
handed......

You stand tall now....and I am small
and aged....you guard me well
as only a son will do for a mother............



Author notes

As a small baby my son would stop breathing and turn blue frequently...This is just to let him know that I never forgot the one who was watching over us ......

    No... not sad It was written to show that hope plays a large part in our lives. My son is now 23 and thriving, so no, not sad but maybe a small miracle

    Awe Lynne. This is spoken straight from the soul in words only a parent and the guardian angels can truly understand. You should really think about printing this off and having it framed for him. Would be a nice Christmas gift

    We are an emotional race at the best of times ...I fear We also put our thoughts into words.....(this has led to a whole mess of trouble ) I am glad you enjoyed this poem. It was something I meant to do for a long time...finally got it down

    Well Done!

    I like the way this flows. The pause between the lst words in each is timed well, just enough to linger and then feed the last word in filling the pieces of the puzzle The emotion is protrayed well, having drawn me in immediately (which trust me is sometimes hard to do lol). All in all a beautiful piece and the artrwork is nice too Well done!
