Peeking through yonder boreal trees, staring back at the gaze of me I see white tailed doe and fawn reflectively I think of you, my daughter, standing alongside me inquisitive, ready for the new day cautious, aware of potential danger out there determined, to forge ahead and play anyway successful, a budding photographer already making dough, your own way. And all this focus, this reverie stimulated by a photo I did see in Chased By The Light a Jim Brandenburg photo masterpiece, who captured an image on your birthdate that shall forever reside in my memory. Oh, what one picture can do! A thousand words from this pen only highlights what that scene does to me, yet I shall search for that thousand words 'till the day I die. |

Cool Kacy, And silly me I thought it was a link to the pic. But I can settle for what is in imagination. Knowing you I have a pretty good image myself. And bless you - mom. ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

It's the book title, Larry. ![]() A photo of Sara's would be nice, but she has her own rights. ![]() |

I know we have some "horse" people who will love the connection of you and your daughter's special connection... I know I do. You write ![]() in many forms...in many lights. ![]() |

Nice write. I'm a mom too and I can appreciate this kind of poetry especially since I have a daughter too. |
