    Nice piece full of emotion. The rhyming is great except for the fourth stanza:
    'What kind of Mummy would I be if I forgot my daughter?
    I had planned my life around her, all the great things we would have done.'
    I enjoyed reading your poem. Keep up :)

    This is beautifully wrought.

    I sincerely mean that, even if thos reply comes from a junk account.

    I think this is a beautifully wrought poem, and seriously one of the most outstanding emotional poems I've read on this website in a very long time. I don't know you, or have ever met you, but you managed to evoke quite an emotional response out of me - and that's doubly rare because I'm not an emotional person!

    The syntax, flow and structure all work well together in this piece and nothing ever felt awkward or jaded in reading it. I think the real underlying beauty; however, is the way you set up the story. I honestly thought it was going to be infective of parenthood, opposed to the irrecoverable sorrow of missing your offspring due to a miscarriage.

    I'm sorry you experienced this tragedy in your life, and I hope when you're ready to conceive again you're healthy to do so in both spirit and body.

    5/5.
