God's Kinder Garden (first poem) Once upon a time, a special flower grew, He was planted here for both me and you. The cutest little bud to be seen by all Which nearly bloomed to four feet tall. Blossoming with all sorts of love and fun My dandelion, my joy and my beloved son. Short lived while defying Nature's fury, To harvest his rest with God in His glory. Like all flowers to give our hearts a lift, I thank the Lord for my most precious gift. I will visit His garden to stay - at last, After my steps on life's journey have past. Til' then memories will be my best guide, Cherishing these few with maternal pride. Together we'll dance on the blue sky dome, When the mother and son are finally home. |
Additional Notes:
My first adult poem was written shortly after my son passed away at 5 years old. It was first published on TPL and dedicated to my son, Terry's memory

This is a very simple yet heart felt poem, sometimes simplier lines can give the most immediate view of the soul. Thanks for letting me read and comment.
