    "Everyday I miss the memories of what was
    meant of your life"
    Wow. Great start. The sorrow/grief of a mother to her child's death is one of the saddest things on earth.

    "The purest joy of a kick could not compare
    to anything else on earth"
    This made me smile. I remember my mum telling me about when she was pregnant. I'll never forget the smile on her face for as long as I live :)

    "My life became your life
    My body became your thron
    My heart became your lullaby
    My blood became your essence"
    Thron? Did you mean throne?
    This is a beautiful stanza. So heart-warming.

    "Your name became my favorite word
    Your presence became my harmony
    I no longer lived for myself but for you my
    first child"
    Well-written.

    "The day the doctor had told me you had
    taken your soul home, I felt a part of my life
    end
    Nolonger would i feel those oh so
    welcoming kicks of what was to come and
    reassurance"
    Gawd. This is so sad. Really broke my heart.. I'm sorry.

    "No longer would I be able to watch my
    future, my world, my daugther grow
    I wouldnt be able to hold your hand on the
    first day of school
    Teach you about boys and how to act like a
    lady
    Play hide and seek or house
    Youd never smile your first smile or laugh
    your first laugh
    Youd never look up to my and say momma I
    love you"
    This is sad..

    "Yourbody has decimated into ashes but
    your memory and spirit live on"
    I like the hope here.. The slight optimism

    "Everyday I am reminded of the pain of
    loosing you
    I strive to be a better woman because of
    you"
    loosing should be losing.
    Other than than, great word choice.

    "Altho you are in a better place there is
    nothing I wouldnt give to join you
    What I wouldnt give for even a seco nd of
    your presence. To be able to look down into
    those beautiful eyes and tell you daugther
    MOMMY LOVES YOU!!!!"
    Altho should be although
    I love the ending. The way you consistently had the emotion fill each word throughout the poem is amazing.

    Great job! Keep writing :)
