Letting Go
(to my daughter Taralynn)
 
 
You're growing so fast
And have grown even faster
Not my little baby girl
That I could hold in my arms
And shield from this world and all of its pain
 
I've tried to teach you all that I know though
So I will now teach myself
To trust your judgment
As you make the decisions
That will affect your future
 
And someday, though it seems forever
It's really just a moment in time, you will remember
This time in your life
And you my sweet daughter
Will be letting go of your own little girl
 
And in the sadness of that moment
You will experience the wonderful
Feelings of motherhood,
At last your child is now an adult
I Love You,
Your Mamma

Spirit to Spirit
 
 
I could feel your heart, it made mine beat
even harder. I could feel the weight upon your
Spirit and I felt like crying. I wanted to
hold you tightly, to make up for all of hugs
you did not receive, but distance challenged my
Spirit and I held you within my Soul.
I held you to my breast and let my heart beat
life into your Spirit. Your sorrow saddened
me beyond space and time, as if your darkness
had become mine. Such a bond, such a Spiritual
Kinship, that your Spirit would reach out to
me, when you could not. Such a strong Spirit, but
held captive by the ghosts of yesterday. Let
them go......it is alright, my Spirit shall
not leave you to this feat alone.
Say goodbye, one by one, and let them loose into
the Netherworld from whence they came to prey
upon your Soul. Say goodbye, and let them go and we
will heal together. When you feel  weak, lean
on me. For that is my purpose in life. That is
my calling, and your Spirit has called to mine.
And I am here.

Happy Birthday to My Daughter
 
 
When I look at you I see beautiful.
I see strength and fortitude beyond compare.
When I talk to you it makes my heart swell,
Because I know that all of your life my words
were there.
And I couldn't be any prouder than I am,
There's not another like you in this world,
And if you need someone I'm here to understand
Because you'll always be my baby girl.
You may be twenty-nine yrs., but that's alright,
I'd still hold your hand while crossing the road
I'd still tuck you in when you're ready at night.
You're just 2 feet 2 tall for me 2 hold,,
So I'll just hold your baby girl instead,
But when I do she reminds me of another
And sometimes it messes with my head,
CAUSE YOU'RE TOO OLD FOR ME TO BE YOUR MOTHER !
