Daddy's Little Angel

Tiny angel, baby girl
Spread your wings and fly.
God picked you as his special angel,
Up there in the sky.

Your mum and I are very sorry
For all that you went through.
I am forever devastated that
We never got to meet you.

We missed seeing your little smile,
Your little eyes and nose.
We missed holding your tiny hands
And tickling your little toes.

We thought we would get to share
Good times, laughter and fun,
But sadly you were taken from us
Before your life had begun.

I will think of you every single day,
And I know your mum will too.
And we will keep you close to our heart
In everything we do.

So whenever I see a beautiful rainbow
High up in the sky
Or in the garden when I see
A graceful butterfly flutter by,

I'll think of you, my little one
'Cause you will always be
Forever in our hearts
For your beautiful mummy and me.

I will look to the sky on a starry night
And search for the brightest star,
As I will know that will be you
Shining down on us from afar.

Tiny angel, baby girl
Mummy and Daddy want you to know
That you mean the world to us.
We love you forever so.

I am 21 and my partner is 22. Our baby girl, Eliza, at 16 weeks, was diagnosed with severe spina bifida. We had to make the tragic decision of a termination. We often wonder what she would have looked like. But we know she'd have been daddy's little girl. Although we never met her, we miss her so much. This poem hit home for us. May she be the brightest star in the sky.

Hi, myself and my partner just recently went through a medical termination due to our baby being diagnosed with anencephaly. Our baby was born on May 7, 2020 at 13 weeks, 4 days. It's heartbreaking. Sorry for your loss. We are going to be burying our baby once post mortem has been done.

I'm truly so sorry for your loss. May you take comfort in knowing she is in safe hands.
