I watched you lay there Cheek to Cheek Mother daughter in silent peace so gentle ang glowing with beauty and pride My heart so filled to lay at your side for there is no time No moment so true As this very moment I stay here with you You are the gleam In my babies eyes you are the stitch of which we comprise That no more happy can I ever be Than watching you here each second you see Time passes before us so soon she'll be grown Running and playing In search of her own Life and Love Peace and joy together her life We'll share and adore Our Sweet Makaylah |

Very touching tribute to youth and life. I especially liked the bit: "you are the stitch of which we comprise" and how it's right in the center of the work "stiching" it's two halves together. Not sure if that was intended but interesting to me, noless. |

A heartfelt write I loved it. Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

This is such an endearing portrait of calm after the storm--it brings me great joy to know that you have found "serenity" afterall... May you always have the happiness that you deserve my sweet friend. Sweet Makaylah has such a good daddy. |
