Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

A Childless Father

A childless father sits silent
His still baby in his mind
His grief is looked down upon
Didn’t he suffer a great loss

A childless father fell to his knees
He screams to God in anger
He was shaken to his core
Didn’t his child deserve to live

A childless father is strong and tall
Let him be held helpless by his wife
Let him grieve so that his heart heals
Didn’t he suffer a great loss

A childless father needs support
He is angry and sad because of his pain
He lost his child and the dream of that life
Didn’t his child deserve to live
