Matilda Mae
a Poem Written for Jenny Edspire ispired by her post Toddler Grief
Dearest Baby Matilda Mae
You are so dearly missed.
Your mummy's heart is breaking
Into lots of tiny bits
You're brother and sister don't understand
where their baby has gone
Why mummy & daddy can't fetch her
and bring her back where she belongs
Matilda Mae I don't know you
But I feel your mummy's pain
So beautifully she writes it
So raw and unrestrained
I want to make it better
To give you back to your mum
But I know that that's not possible
What is done can't be undone
So please baby Tilly grant me
A favour from your place up high
Grant your family the wherewithal
To be strong and to get by
