To be in love with you Is a gift far beyond compare Of other loves I knew Before you, before you were there. I find myself to be Wishing to hold you constantly, To hold you close to me And feel your innocence freely. Missing you is much more, Much more than I can handle now. Coping is but a chore And to this pressure I must bow. Running my fingers through Your darkened locks, you'll fall asleep, Float on clouds past stars, too. And for you the stardust I'll sweep. I take comfort knowing That for me, you're the only one To keep my heart glowing As I keep loving you, my son. And you, so pale and fine... I'm so proud of how you've grown And just because you're mine, All min and mine alone! It seems I only blink And suddenly you are older, Which then leads me to think That I should try to be bolder When you're freedom expands And then I am forced to let go Of those once-tiny hands That now, are running their own show. Sometimes I will wonder How you'll look and sound, in that time, Ahead and asunder, Sprouting up from beneath my rhyme. I could not wish for more Than to fulfill all your hopes and dreams. I could not wish for more Than you, the daughter of my dreams. ©2000 Erin Solari ~onevoice~ "And Something's odd-within- That person that I was- And this One-do not feel the same- Could it be Madness-this?"

Children are indeed a special joy Pixie. I am as glad to have my own as you are to have yours. Thank you for letting me post it for you. Now and forever, my heart hears ~one voice~.

What a touching tribute -- glad to see that you're back, if only in surrogate form. Hope to see more soon. --Kess You cannot choose the way of your death, but the path you choose will determine its own end. |
