Daily Reflections
 












SultryRose's Signatures





That special moment
'bonding'
when held
for first time
itty bitty fingers
wrapped around mine

That special moment
'giggles'
cute wobble in walk
words linked together
learning to talk

That special moment
'kisses'
to heal wounded knees
stories 'n hugs
'fore falling asleep

That special moment
'happy'
trying to read
proud of yourself
'n feeling
quite pleased

That special moment
'reward'
school years
now done
graduated with pride
my daughter,
my son

That special moment
'panic'
a license and car
'please now honey,
be home before dark'

That special moment
'connected'
asking Daddy's
advice
a willingness
to listen
perchance he
is right

That special moment
'laughter'
as stories unfold
sharing 'lil tidbits
sweet memories
of old

That special moment
'comfort'
love broke your heart
a shoulder to lean on
when tears stung
your eyes

That special moment
'fearful'
out on your own
Mom weepy and sad
as you walked
out the door

That special moment
'heartache'
traveled afar
Prayed for your safety
off fighting
a war

That special moment
'proud'
Nurse's cap
top your head
passing the boards
becoming RN

That special moment
'sharing'
both good times
and bad
happiness
sadness
our love
tightly wound

That special moment
'joyous'
found love
of your life
starting anew
with husband
and wife

That special moment
'Blessing'
grandbabies
to greet
gifts sent from Heaven
the cycle complete

Those special moments
'treasures'
all mine to endure
tucked deep
in my heart
safe and secure
