Remembering the feel of my babies heads
upon my shoulder.
Ahhhhhhhh...
that I shall
never,
ever,
EVER
forget.
A tiny, warm, sleeping
wee head
tucked between
my shoulder and chin.
Closing my eyes;
trying to soak it in.
Willing it
to last
a little longer.
It didn't.
It doesn't.
They were there
sleeping so peacefully
just the other day.
Needing me.
Mostly
just me.
And then they were
gone.
Time
took them from my arms;
Out
into the world.
But I can still feel them.
They are still there.
