Some days my heart is so full, the words just pour out. This one is for my little ones so that they may always know – they will always have me.
The sun settles over me with a blinding brilliancy,
As I watch you, my babies,
You are the most beautiful beings,
My heart radiates with a magical love,
Certainly there is no greater,
It is yours and always yours,
To carry with you on your travels,
I will always be your home,
Your refuge,
A safe place to hide,
A shelter from life’s storms,
I will always be your strength
On days when you need to fall,
I will be your ear
On days when you feel lost,
I will laugh with you forever,
For your giggles light my way,
I will hold you
Long after you are too big for my lap,
And, my heart will carry you
Long after the sands of time have faded away
You will never be alone,
My loves.
Your momma’s love will fly with the angels and surround you…
On and on and on…
Lori, you capture the spirit of your love and devotion in your poem. The inspiration of your “subjects” are clear and shining examples putting your heart in your work and creativity. I was moved by the maternal picture you paint and can see all of you so well here. Thank you for doing this and sharing it with us. I love you.
Thank you for all of your comments and kind words!
