Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

When I think of Jacob John

Jacob's Sibling

In memory of my baby brother Jacob

My mom was in the hospital
My dad was here at home
I felt so bad inside me
I thought I’d write this poem.

The night my daddy told me
Was the night of Halloween.
To see my Father crying
Was a sight I’d never seen.

He told me that my brother died
The day that he was born.
It isn’t fair; it isn’t right
My heart was really torn.

Now that time is passing
And all our lives go on,
It brings both tears and smiles
When I think of Jacob John.
