dusted with dreams
she sleeps...
softly she sighs
her sweet baby sighs
her little mouth moves
as if speaking in silence
her tiny fingers twitch
once or twice
yet she is peaceful
in a place where
i cannot accompany her
in her own world
beyond my reach
deep in the night
she plays in the sun
oblivious to the moon nestled high...
then stretching out her arm
she finds me there
pats my cheek gently
and all is good--
she sleeps...

g,
Though many years and far away...I haven't forgotten. Thank you for the reminder.

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

creeps to your head, like a set of
legged thoughts or something. it smells
like peanutbutter and jam sandwiches on
a bright windy day and it feels like
faded memories.

I can't think of anybody luckier than you, Gale.  Nestled close to your baby, marveling, and being rewarded by the purest, sweetest gestures of trut and love.  You certainly captured all that here.
