Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

In A Baby's Castle

In a babies castle,
Just beyond my eye,
My baby plays with angel toys,
That money cannot buy.

Who am I to wish him back,
Into this world of strife?
No, play on, my baby,
You have eternal life.

At night when all is silent,
And sleep forsakes my eyes,
I'll hear his tiny footsteps,
Come running to my side.

His little hands caress me,
So tenderly and sweet,
I'll breathe a prayer, close my eyes,
And embrace him in my sleep.

Now I have a treasure,
That I rate above all others,
I have known true glory,
I am still his mother!
