Dear Richard
A poem for my baby brother who died from SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome)
Seems as though it’s been a while,
Since you were born to us,
We didn't get to spend much time,
Only 3 and half months.
I missed the times when I would blow,
bubbles on your tummy,
Or show off all the things you did,
to your loving mummy.
I know that she miss's you,
As each year rolls by,
15 years since she held you,
My brother when you were alive.
Why you left us remains unknown,
For that there was no cause,
Why your breathing was so strong,
For what reason did you pause?
I guess I shouldn't ask you that,
It’s easy for me to want to,
Please know my baby brother Richard,
Just how much we love you.
