Gold Leaves in Winter

Gold Leaves In Winter


June 10, 2008
will be my thirty-eighth year anniversary
of parenting. I've adopted children with
terminal illnesses, as well as healthy children.
Each precious child is as a leaf
of pure gold, both to my
Heavenly Father God, and to our family,
precious and fine, clinging to the barren branches,
shining in the darkest human winter of despair and longing.

Each of my children left glowing
memories in my heart that will never be lost.
And I believe that my children who died, will be
reunited with us all in Heaven, where we'll never
be parted from each other again,
for all eternity.

On this site, I'm sharing memories, while
attempting to create something tender and loving,
so that something fine emerges from the fires
of anguish and tears. Lasting memorials
written in loving memory and honor
of all our beloved children.





Here are some of my poems in their memories. (C) 1985 - 2008 Rosemary J. Gwaltney

End of the Pier Remembering Joshua While She Leaves Parting
The Kidnapping Before the Mist Closed In Morning's Time The Wound Is Fierce
The First Miscarriage On Visiting My Baby's Grave Where The Statue Bends Zachary Samuel
Without Her Sarah Joy Little Lost Face Misty Angelita
O Pearl Of Mine April Dawn Their Eyes Our Last Night
Little Girls Don't Die Dale Juan and Holly Rosetta Aghast Precious To Me
Starkest Glare Of Dawn My Very Own Little Boy Bleu Tears In The Pool Remember, Sarah?
Losing Again Floating By Me Sleepy Noon Shiny Shoes
That Christmas That Christmas
