A Poem for Anne

Posted: Tue, 4 April 2006 | permalink | No comments

In a fairy castle,
Just beyond my eye
My baby plays with angel toys,
That money cannot buy

Who am I to wish her back into this world of strife?
No, play on my baby,
You have eternal life.

At night when all is silent,
And sleep forsakes my eyes;
I'll hear her tiny footsteps,
Coming running to my side.
Her little hands caress me,
So tenderly and sweet;
I'll close my eyes and
Breathe a prayer,
Embrace her in my sleep.

Now I have a treasure,
I rate above all others;
I have known true glory,
I am still her mother.
