With An Angel On My Shoulder: Stuck On You

The Poem That Inspired My Subtitle

A Song for Daniel, Stillborn
by Jean Felice Eilbert (his mother)

When I held you in my arms that day
Born so still, born anyway
How was I to know to say goodbye?
No one knew just what to do
Except tell me I'd get over you
As if forgetting makes it all untrue -- a lie

But I remember to remember
I can't forget just to forget
Your memories are a part of me
Connecting me to what comes next.

And even after all this while
I think of you, sometimes I smile
Memories of my unknown child, fade slow.
I've held you in my heart each day
Life so short, life anyway
Memories are meant to say hello.

Stuck On You

My two favorite pots are stuck together.
Like, really stuck.
(Not a drop of water from the bottom pot will come out!)
Probably forever.

ter@waaoms said...: I did google it and I've tried every idea I've come across! There is no space to put oil or anything between them and I did the whole heat/freeze method as well. I've even banged them with a hammer! Dented the top one a bit, that's about it. :(; February 02, 2011
