My children were on my mind today as words began flowing on the paper. I thought I would share these verses that were quickly scripted this morning. They are still subject to tweaking if I see fit at a later time. My children are such special little miracles, as all mothers will attest! Both of them have such unique personalities, they are opposites in so many ways. And opposites in many of the ways that my husband and I are opposites. We would make a very interesting anthropology study for someone. Anyhoo here's today's fresh baked goods:
As of yet untitled
For G.
Someday the world will bask in your presence
Riding through life grasping the coat tails of your confidence
Your decisions will be final
Your opinions will be vital
Fearless
Today
Fearless
They'll Say
Fearless
You'll March through all of your days
The Piper
The Fighter
Ever the Righter
The Lover
Without Cover
No shroud for your passions
Blessed be the body
Who embodies your desire
The man you will be
Is easy to see
For me

The Definition
For R
A simple name,
Plucked from fame.
A fallen Star,
A childish scar.
Carried for years inside my heart,
This name,
This word,
This need,
My son, the first, would bear the title.
Could I have known
With you snug in my womb
That your destined name
And character be the same?
Beautiful and Moving,
Inspiring and Nurturing,
Raging and Rambling,
Unpredictable,
Determined,
Ever Changing,
Ever Moving,
Winding towards your destination,
Gathering speed,
Saturating knowledge,
Gaining Ground,
Impossible to dam,
Your Name, Your Destiny
From the dreams of a girl.
A childhood crush,
Posters on the wall,
Forgotten lust....,
But the passion for the child
Whose name he carries.
As if Angels whispered in every dream,
of the son I would birth,
one with the Earth,
Flowing through life
Still and strong.
A River.
