My Child

Sweet child,
as I walk amongst the soft green and pink,
                                          newly sprouted
with you very close                    in my arms
I am loving you so purely -- so fervently
holding you as though you might fly away
                                  with the gentle breeze
                      to heaven too soon . . .
O, my child,
as spring's beauty blossoms in delicate colors
                        showering us in her pleasant aroma
I wonder at how I love you so strongly
feeling as though you left your home in the stars
                                        to come live with me
                  and share with me the secret
of the soft glow in your eyes
and the sparkling dust behind your ears

awakening memories of the lost child in myself
hearing those tinkling bells again . . .
                          playing on those magic shores

Dear child,
when you return to your celestial home . . .
                   
                  may I follow you?
        Love,
            Mother

    I don't even know what to say anymore without repeating myself but this is a most amazing, beautiful write. I envy your dreams like these if this is what they entail and inspire. This is so beautiful and so filled with love, those are not even good enough words to express how much I admire this.

    This is really, really outstanding, in my book!
