    Poem Commentary

    Miscarriages have been a part of my life since I was in my 20's.  This was started many years ago.  I got to keep number four here on earth with me and I am very grateful.  It was just hard to clear out the baby room every time....  Just needed some help.  Hope you enjoy.

    "Rocka bye baby"



    Rocka bye baby.
    bye,  baby number one.

    Rocka
     bye Baby,
    Bye baby number two.

    Rocka,
     Hello crying
    hello tryin
     for number three

    Rocka,
    A like a stone
    like a stone
    unfeeling in the sand

    Rocka, 
    like a pain
    like no heartbeat.
    empty!

    Rocka
    like empty arms
    like an empty baby room
    an empty crib

    Rocka,
    like seven times
     empty cribs don't rock

    It ws what has happened. A very hatbreakingexerience 6 miscarriages. Got to have one. My lucky one. Thanks for all your kind comments.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
