She said "Mommy, when I go away today will you be there when I get home?" I said "Yes honey, I will be here when you get home." She said "Mommy I might be gone till dark will you let the light on for me?" I said "Yes honey, I will leave the light on for you to come home." She said "Mommy, some day I might leave for a long, long time will I still be able to come home?" I said, "Baby, you will always be able to come home." She said "Mommy, I love you." I said "My angel I will always love you." On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. |

Thank you for such a beautiful poem. I do remember when my little boys would never leave home without a hug and saying "I Love You Mommy" |

Martie, Inot, Butterfly, thank you all so much. Children can give us so much love that it almost hurts sometimes. Again, my sincere thanks.  |

GentleSpirit~ And we build their faith in us on small staircases that they can easily climb one small step at a time. This is a lovely write. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Marge, Nate, Rosebud, D, and Ron......whew......thanks to you all. I think sometimes we can take for granted the little things that our children say to us, and as after thoughts we sit back and say........ "Man, there is nothing like the love of a child." Thanks all. |
