One moment in a childs life,
always needing,
always loving,
always wanting,
always caring,
never letting on they know.

One moment in a mothers life,
always looking after the always curious child,
always loving,
always trying to keep up,
always holding on,
always wondering if they listened to you.

One moment of truth,
the moment I always knew would last alifetime,
always waiting for that moment,
the moment mother and daughter became more,
they became friends.


                 To my mother
                   Sunshine
             I will always love you.
                 your daughter,
                The One & Only!

It's not fair to catch your mother off guard this way...

Let me please be the first one to Welcome You to Passions...

and baby?  Check your e-mail for a Very Special Greeting...

I love you, too.

I see the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!    To call one mother AND friend is one of the most special things one can say. You are fortunate to have such a mother and I see now that she is also the fortunate one...

Welcome to our family. You can call ALL of us friends

Welcome to PIP!

I see your mother has rubbed off on you.
Is a very good thing, indeed.
She is a very special Lady
and so loved.

You are going to adore it here.

Mothers & daughters have a bond that transcends all others, and you've captured that beautifully.  Nicely done, sunshiny One and Only.

Welcome to Passions in Poetry.  It's a grand place, and we're happy to have you here...

This is indeed a special treat;
You have me dancing on my feet.
To read your work is pleasure true,
I join the rest and welcome you.

And one more thing I'd like to say.
Please show us more; just write your way.
And cares that bug us in our thought
Are driven away, just like they ought.

Welcome, O&O  KJ

Welcome One and Only! I hope my 3 girls turn out to be as sweet and close to me as you are to your mom. There could be no greater gift to any mom than to be best friends with their child.

KJ,
Well now, seldom are there joys in life exceeded by that which our children gift us with, at any age. It is indeed a delight to see you posting here and launching with such depth of love and meaning. Welcome and may there be many more items to read. May life bring you much peace and joy as a result of what you give.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Dear Krystal Joy:  How wonderful that you have reached that point in your life where you realize your mother can also be your best friend!  I have had that blessing for many years with my own daugher and you will reap many rewards from being close to yours.

I thought you expressed yourself very well and enjoyed your "poem". Hope you will share with us in the future!  good luck!
