POEMS OF LIFE
To The One I Call Mother:
To many of us we stay in the family we were born to..But for the others
we are known as foster children. That is where I was placed as a baby, A number
not a name. But then one day, I was sent to a new family. A family with a name
For there I got a mom. She has raised me to believe in Hope,Life,God,and most important
myself. For many years I look to her as the person I wanted to become. But she fast told me,
no my child grow to be you, One of Gods Angels on earth. For a long time I did
not understand what she meant. Then one day in the pain, I knew,I saw what my mom
meant, Go into this world as a bright star,And give of your heart to those in need,
For you have the gift of love deep inside of you,And no one can take that away
To the one I call Mother "I Thank you for letting me be the person I have become"
Without you to have loved, and believed in me, I would have been nothing.
To you I will always feel I have a special place in this world among the saints
For that person is the one I call Mother. To Mom with all my love

My Shining Star
March 1979.7:11 P.M. A shining star came to her
Mom&Dad.Eyes of blue hair of coal
What a sight to behold, Not a tear did she sigh,
The work of God gave us a daughter
As new parents it was as God gave us a
gift we would hold dear forever, Little did
we know just how much of a gift, this child truly
was. Baby days flew by,Like a
thief in the night.She was a wonder,
at two she began her dance lessons, Oh how we
loved to see her stand and do nothing,
as all the other children went on to the dance
proud was I to see my star stand,Then wait she had
moved, yes moved,For when a little
child behind her kicked off her taps,
my shining star ran to get the shoe and give it
back to the child it belonged too.
Oh how we smiled to see a heart
of gold,Needless to
say, My shinging star was the hit of the day.
As dance lessons fastly became a part of
our life,My shining star had become part
of the dance company for her town,We sat at
many of compititions,But again time
came like a thief in the night.
Now my shining star
was just that,With many a titles in
TAP,Ballet,Jazz,We saw her grow into a beautiful
young woman.Now she has moved
on into her life, To become a
member of this world, Oh
how my heart soars when she
spends time at home,
For I remember all the joys she has
brought to her Mom&Dad.
I love the shining star that
God gave us that day, And I pray
that her life will be one
she can always be proud of,
As we are of her.A Moms prayer
is of one, that her daughter be
happy, and know that God's greatest gift,
was the day she was born.
Love,Mom
A Diamond In The Rough
January,1986,1:11 A.M.Oh my big blue eyes and what?
blonde hair! excuse me blonde hair!
For being Mom&Dad
had hair of coal.Oh yes she is ours look at that
smile that glow,yes she is ours,Well once again
God
blessed us with yet another daughter,And what a
diamond in the rough she was,Fast to grow, Fast
to learn
We did not crawl, nor did we walk,
We went right into running,And yet as a young
teenager still running
So was it no wonder that this diamond in the
rough,Would grow up fast,And leave yesterday
behind
Oh how fast that thief in the night called time took
her chilhood in to a fast growing soccer
wonder,Tho she does not wear pearly things or dress
up,She is Mom&Dads diamond in the rough
how we wonder to see her on a soccer field battling
all before her,She gives all her best
God gave this diamond in the rough wings to fly, And
fly she does.We look for great things
to become of this diamond in the rough, For she has a
heart of steam, and the smile of an
angel.Mom's prayer for this diamond in the rough,Is
that she will always have time for the
good in her heart to give of herself as God has given
to her.May she grow in light and always
know that she is a diamond among the pebbles.
For she is loved
Love, Mom
How she loves to
do the header,And
good at it she is.
In Memory Of Lisa Marie
April 1975 The birth of an Angel,
That Mom&Dad would never know.
The loss of a child, no matter how or when
is the hardest thing for a parent to face.
Tears oh yes for many a years,
Angry No, For God has given me an Angel
to look upon my life with the
hope of the day I myself go to
the beyond,That I will have
an Angel waiting for me
oh how I can picture a beautiful
Angel in Heaven named Lisa Marie,
and for a brief moment in time she was here
with me to remember and to share
all Gods wonders upon us all.
I can see Lisa Marie in the
chorus of Angels bringing all
her love to every one she sings to.
My prayer for my daughter is
that she has known all the wonders
of God,For she began her life
with the Angels among the Good
Lord.
May you sleep in peace my young one,
May you bring a smile to all
who is in need, for God has chosen
you as an Angel Among Many..
To Lisa Marie
Mom&Dad's Little Angel to have
and to hold.
But God needed her in Heaven,
He only lent her for a short while
Love,Mom&Dad
