Though I cast my gaze

Heart Grazes

Driving along listening to tunes

The radio singing to me

I thought of you

Flashes of memories

Seep from my brain

The carefree days

When there was no pain

Sitting on your shoulders

Just one dance Daddy

Poem by Wendy Norman (Seafarrwide)

When I was born did you feel possession as crucial as each breath you take
I was just a babe, a mere mortal, sins unknown yet to make
You wrapped me in cotton wool with a halo of gold
I was the reason for you to live were the stories untold

But did you witness how you tangled your noose
Around my neck I was like a puppet never set loose
Bid to do as you dreamed, never to fail but be your second chance
You steered my rudder with powerful force without a backward glance

My Little Girl Fell

My little girl fell,
And she crawled to me
And I picked her up,
And off she went again.

“In Memory You Grow”

In memory of my Husband 4/13/62-3/21/04

Happy Birthday 52
52 years Bright
I sit beside the lake of blue
Across
A Village
And there’s the street
The one that took your life

10 years ago
Plus one week,
Right before your day
That we’d sing the song just for you,
“Happy wonderful
Birthday”

where did my infants go?

two arrows fly free
beauty, kind hearts and laughter
a sparkling treasure
