I MISS YOU SWEET ROSE

Sad love story birth of a baby..loss of a wife

I look up to the sky, to remind me of life
The woman I loved, a mother a wife
Seasons have passed, my memories clear
But slowly they fade, with each passing year

The baby that came, and opened her eyes
Left yours to close, now up in the sky
You are the reason, the sun burns my sight
I look up in the daylight, and also at night

Ill be a great dad, that's what they all say
I wish you were here, every night every day
To assure me of questions, that lay in my mind
I feed her just right, and rock her just fine

When I look down, to the baby we made
I cover her eyes, my hand makes the shade
Looks just like you, her smile her nose
She's named after you, I miss you sweet rose

Had to come back to this one....

The line "I look up in the daylight, and also at night" would flow better if it read "I look up in the day, and also at night".

"To assure me of questions, that lay in my mind
I feed her just right, and rock her just fine"

That line is so beautiful and simple.

This is one of you best pieces I've read so far. Really great

thanks Mark! i don't have children but my heart goes out to all the men who lose their wife when awaiting their new addition to the family. I love this one too. when I need a good cry I'll read it sometimes.

Amazing and very beautiful poem. You take on another's perceptive and character so easily and with great results. This is quite sad but pure in it's essence.

Loved it!
