My Daughter’s Child



As I watch this child snuggle closer and closer against his mother
The feelings of love between mother and child is overwhelming.
The mother is cuddling
As the baby cuddles back.
Oh, what a feel of love and caring !!!!

You can feel the bond made at this time.
The bond that lasts forever in time...
Throughout all time...
Throughout all space...
Throughout what is to be.

Ah, the feel of the bonds between mother and child!
What happens to this child???
The baby of innocence...
The baby that was once protected by his mother

Ah, The question of time
The quest for all that is
Oh, the vision starts.

The baby grows and grows.
Soon the baby is no longer small.
Now a child...
Then a teenager.

Oh, the headaches a teenager can cause!
And the bond still there...
Between mother and child

The vision is diminishing.
What this child will do in life
I do not know.
Who this child will become
I do not know.

Yet, all I can do for this child of my daughter’s is...
Pray to all that is,
That the bond between mother and child,
Will always be there,
When needed by either or both.

Ah...the warmth of the embrace of mother and child
For all time.
Oh...the feel of love and caring!!!!



The Looking Glass



Ah...have you ever looked into a mirror and
Wondered where you got your looks?
A member of the family...
Or someone you never knew...
Who can tell me ?
For I need to know...
On my quest for whom I am...

Turn this way...
That way...
I see me just as I am...
What do others see ?
I do not know...
I only know myself from inside to outside...
That spirit walks with me...
Every day...every hour...every second...

Do I glow ?
Am I different ?
Feel the inner strength...
Know the inner strength...
Of the wisdom from all that has been...
And all that can be...

For I am walking my path...
My mission in this life is
To help others as well as myself...
In the quest for all that I can be...
And all that life wants me to be...

So I sit quietly...
Steady...steady...feeling my heartbeat...
I focus on who I am
From the inside to the outside...
And now the glow begins...

I smile now as life has blessed me
With a spirit from all ages...
So as I look in the looking glass...
I no longer question whom I look like...
It only matters who I am...

I am proud to be who I am...
And what I have become...
The visions are true
As I realize that the
Quest will be my entire life...

Ah..feel the peace...
Ah...feel the heartbeat...!!!!
