Some of my passions
Is to become a mom ! The feeling is so unreal
To feel the movement of a new life soon to appear
Knowing the warmth of holding them so very very near
Learning that you are responsible for this precious little soul
Is such a wonderous feeling that gets out of control
They capture your heart with just one look! Like a falling star out of control
I was blessed with five of these precious gifts of my own
One by one they grew before my eyes !Now im lucky if i get to hear them on the phone
Plus now im blessed to see three new precious gifts to grow
But the difference is now im grandma not mom !Just to let you know
My heart still beams as if it was looking at my sweet babes from years before
Oh well no need to turn back the pages of time!
Whose keeping score
Life is moving and growing all around!Going round and round i see the weather vane
Silence feels like a great gift at times to me
Especially when there is nothing but hate and pain i see
We could all close our eyes and doors
But that wouldnt stop all the hurt , pain and wars
Freedom is not a word to use lightly or forget
God intended it for all and yet
We do not all have the priviledge to enjoy
Why cant it be for every man ,woman,girl and boy
I am but one voice expressing my view today
With any luck we all will join together
someday
A gentle soft breeze blows across the land
As if someone had touch my face with their hand
Looking around for miles !Not one thing do i see
The total quiet sometimes puzzles me
Wasnt it yesterday i heard the sweet sound of giggles in this room
Our lives can change so quickly just zoom
When one moment of pleasure can be followed by pain
A person can give things their all! With nothing to gain
Life stands still for none of us
Enjoying each moment or trying your best is a must
Raindrops falling slowly down the window sill
Your memories visit me often still
Life is a very important factor to me
Why you left that day i still dont see
Moving on has been a challenge but belief is the key
Taken part of you along with me each day
Trying to guide him along the way
Hoping i done something right to help him grow
Maybe in time to come we both will know
How leaving us behind was the only way
Only you knew why you left and only you could say
I was blessed with all these gifts that followed and the joy
From the birth of our precious baby boy
Now he is a father and very proud
This house if full often with a crowd
But i wouldnt have it any other way
Guess this is the end of this poem ive had my say
In this space that surrounds us each day
So much can happen to affect our way
From the simplest things of the weather we see
To the words we use you and me
Some go each day not giving a thought to what appears
While others worry about the littest thing even their fears
Life should be full of experiencs and delights
Not worry of being harmed or fear for ones life
Where have the days gone of being so carefree
Now we face days of total mistrust of the people we see
What a legacy to give our children to endure
Is there any hope of changing this !I pray for a cure
