Not all babies are meant to live
No matter the reason why
No matter the life we long to give
Some babies are born to die
Some say such a short life holds no worth
But disagree I must
For the lessons they impart from birth
By example teaching us

I have performed this poem in several venues, but this is the first time it appears in print.
Interesting that I did not recall that this was written the day after my dad died. Symmetry.
