Friday Blog Roundup - a shorter version and a must-read poem
I just happen to be having one of those days (my apologies, but they still come. After all this time they still come), so I'm abbreviating the blog roundup today and just asking you to take a look at this.
It's a beautiful poem by Missing One over at A Mending Heart. She lost her daughter this Mother's Day - just weeks ago. With sorrow so raw it still oozes from every pore, she somehow still managed to pen an achingly beautiful poem about what she believes makes someone a true mother.
If you have wondered, even for the briefest of moments, if you can still be called a mother if you have no living babies or if the babies you carried and lost were too small to see, read this poem.
If you're like me, it will feel like drinking an endlessly tall, ice cold glass of water on the hottest afternoon of the summer.
If you happen to know of any other soul soothing poems or passages like this one (or if you're written any of your own), please consider posting them (or links to them) in the comments.
Thank you Missing One. I needed that.

Msfitzita, thank you for the time and energy you put into sharing these helpful links.
I continue to look forward to your "Friday Blog Roundup's." It gives me the opportunity to read blogs of other P.I.M. that I otherwise would have never found.
Your efforts are very much appreciated.
