Barefoot...

Take me to a place where needs are melon void. Where trees swallow my attention and dirt cuddles with my toes. I want to run threw a meadow to find a creek, and splash like a child, searching for treasure. I want to chase a dragonfly that danced by my shoulder, down into a valley blessed with black eyed suzie’s. Though we spook grazing deer, they do not run, just watch. As I would breath deep and smile, lying on my back, allowing the sun to cradle me in its arms. I wish this moment could take my hand and guide me to this peace every time I close my eyes.

Love, Mother

From your dreams,

to your nightmares,

from your smiles,

to your tears.

 I catch you when you fall, and I chase away your fears.

I’m up all night with worry, as your independence grows.

I hope I’ve showed you enough kindness, and that all your goodness shows.

 I will never forget the things that happened to shape your little smiles.

Nothing could keep us apart not even a million miles.

So my three children, I ask of you, always love each other as I do you.
