EULOGY FOR THE PREMATURE


The greatest grief

concerns us often with the smallest of beings.

The ifs and buts of life

play a distressing game with our minds.

Such a tiny child,

a small bundle,

barely launched into the world

but snatched from life,

What eulogy for the prematurely born

- and prematurely taken,

except that she warmed her way into our hearts

to leave an emptiness there in the making.

Very deep and thoughtful.


This was written when my best friend's wife had a miscarriage. I wanted to express my pain for his (and his wife's) loss.
