Mother

  Your love was like moonlight turning harsh things to beauty, so that little wry souls reflecting each other obliquely as in cracked mirrors ...beheld in your luminous spirit their own reflection, transfigured as in a shining stream, and loved you for what they are not. You are less an image in my mind than a luster I see you in gleams pale as star-light on a gray wall ... evanescent as the reflection of a white swan shimmering in broken water.

My Sweet Daughter

Image
Daughters are the sunshine, That comes after the rain. A bright beacon of hope, When not much joy remains. Daughters are blessings, A rare coveted few. And few love their daughters, The way I love you. My daughter is very special, Kind and very true. If you’ve ever met her, I’m sure you’d think so, too. She has the smile, That lights up her face. It doesn’t matter where she goes, She’s liked in every place. I’m proud to have her as my daughter, Prouder than anyone could ever know, I’ve written her this poem, Just to tell her I love her so!

My Father - the one and only

He was so proud of his little girl. It was her very first day of school. He walked with her to school that day, And she held his hand all the way. They walked together quiet and sad, A little girl and her loving dad. Into the school her father led, But he almost cried when she said, "Daddy, Daddy, please don't go. Don't leave me here all alone. I'll miss you if you go away, And I might need you; can't you stay?" "Little Daughter, please don't cry. You'll be okay, so dry your eyes. You have our memories in your heart. We're together though we're apart." He sat up front on her wedding day And cried as his daughter walked away. Later that night he watched her dance. He sat there waiting for his chance. The band started to play their song. Father and daughter danced along. She looked at him and saw a tear

My Cats

  I know. I know. they are limited, have different needs and concerns. but I watch and learn from them. I like the little they know, which is so much. they complain but never worry, they walk with a surprising dignity. they sleep with a direct simplicity that humans just can’t understand. their eyes are more beautiful than our eyes. and they can sleep 20 hours a day without hesitation or remorse. when I am feeling low all I have to do is watch my cats and my courage returns. I study these creatures. they are my teachers.
