Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

Memories

By Jackie Antovsky mother of Michael & Matthew

In memory of Michael & Matthew

Memories are like our families,
we don’t always see them,
although we know they are there.

They take us back in time to the
places we most treasure.
They open doors to both happy and
sad times we’ve shared.

As we look back on those
memories we wish that we
could change the ones that cause
pain and relive the happy ones.

Sometimes we cry with pain
over those we never forget,
other times we cry with joy over
those we never wish to forget.

We may try to block out those
which cause pain, but they are
always there deep inside.

As we grow old our minds may
forget, but our hearts will
always remember.
