Excerpts
My Dear Son,

Because it was the last chance I had to see you;
the last chance before they took your tiny 6 pound body
and made you into sticky ashes for the marble jar;
because it was the last chance I had
to feel your weight, your silken hair, your soft bruised skin;
because it was the last chance I had,
and I did not take it.

My Forever Love,
Momma
