This Shrine is dedicated to
Children who have Died Unborn.
My unborn son, Collin, has
been included within the shrines pages. You too
can have a child entered in
it and you get a wonderful Certificate in the mail.
The following poem is in memory
for the lost children
Mommy,
I know that
I'm not born yet,
But, inside
you... my love grows.
My spirit
is so strong and heaven sent,
My body
growing... is yet to show.
It's going to
be...what seems like forever,
before I show
my precious face.
My body so soft
and tiny in size,
My heart's...
a saving grace.
Six weeks now...you've
been blessed,
my life, you
hold-in your hands.
20 is the number
of all my fingers... and toes,
for me...what
are your plans?
I may not be so
grown, as of yet,
but...in my mind,
I sense your fear.
What are all...these
decisions you make,
are you sure...you're
thinkin' so clear?
These thoughts
that you've been having,
I'm hoping they
are...all a dream.
Im a living part
of you,
why aren't you
as happy...as you should seem?
Have you even
talked...to my Daddy today,
about...what's
going on?
Don't you know
that he loves you,
won't he miss
me, when I'm gone?
STOP IT MOMMY!
You'll regret
what ....you are going to do.
YOU'LL HATE YOURSELF,
Your... whole
life through!
My daddy has already...given'
me a name,
he loves me as
much as... you do today.
You can hear
it echoing...in his heart,
The name is Collin
Raye.
