Given I no longer feel alone in my childlessness, I really appreciate the growing community around the issue and am submitting this to World Childless Week 2021 which has been key to growing that community. I hope YOU are no longer alone too. There are many of us "out there".

Here We Are (by Clare Elleray)

Here she wrote, felt alone

Here she stayed to welcome you

Here she bloomed where she was planted

Sharing courage with her peers

Here I am, not alone

Here I’ll stay to welcome you

Here I’ll bloom where I am planted

Sharing courage with our peers

Here we are, not alone

Here we’ll stay to welcome you

Here we’ll bloom where we are planted

Sharing courage with our peers

Here he his, not alone

Here he’ll stay to welcome you

Here he’ll bloom where he is planted

Sharing courage with our peers

Here we are, not alone

Here we’ll stay to welcome you

Here we’ll bloom where we are planted

Sharing courage with our peers

Here we are
