"A Moment to Reflect" Memories of this year play in my head As a small smile crosses my face Thinking of all the good that has ocurred This love that I found...delicate as lace Good times with the family All as it should be Knowing that my Angel in heaven Is watching down over me Peace finally found its way To my home long last Amazing to think 2001 is 'round the corner Time has passed by so fast Mountains I've had to climb The battle has been uphill Tears I had cried both of joy and pain Broke the chains around my heart and allowed me to heal Your sweet loving face set me free Linda dear sis has returned once again As relationships once thought over Are able to now once begin Angel high above Smiling down on her family I know As the love in my heart for those all around me Forever it will grow Graduation is over The caps were thrown high As to my college friends and life I waived a tearful goodbye New job I received Excitement coursing through me Finally coming out about my secret Some things are meant to be New friendships developed Old friends saying farewell Long last my time has come As my ship sets to sail Horizon looking bright As love found its way into my heart Once again allowing me to believe Life given new start Dad met new woman Her love shines through everyday As the pain of losing my Angel eases Blue skies replace gray 2001 what shall you hold for me Christmas time now, as family draws near For now tomorrow can wait As all that matters, is the now and here Merry Christmas to everyone and a very Happy New Year! Love you ALL ~amy~ [This message has been edited by Aimster (edited 12-09-2000).] |

I think it would be lovely if everyone wrote something like this, how wonderful and honest and refreshing..... "Always be a first rate version of your self instead of a second rate version of someone else." Marilyn Monroe |

Amy, As always, beautiful piece my friend. So honest and heartfelt . . . a pleasure to read. Congrats on your 2000th post!! Here is to many more!!  LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
