Sarah Lost Her Mama Sarah lost her mama, in the silence of the night when the moon was full and tender And it called her to soft light. * Sarah lost her mama but soon she found her near in all the things surrounding her in every breathe of air. * She feels her in the breezes that softly touch her fur and when she looks into the pond mama’s looking back at her. * Sarah, sees her mama in the stretch of evening sky among, the silver dancing stars as summer days draw neigh. * And, if she listens closely in the silence of the day Sarah, knows her mama is not very far away. * For she hears her mama speaking through the rustling of the trees and in the call of morning doves when she wakens from her dreams. * She hears her mama whisper as the breezes cross the bay and she sings among the rushes on a cool October day. * She will always be beside her to guide her as she grows with comfort, through the memories that only Sarah knows. * So Sarah, smiles and welcomes all the magic that surrounds and lets her soul be snuggled by these smooth and gentle sounds. * For Sarah knows the secret that the spirit never dies but rides upon a melody of soft sweet lullabies. |
Additional Notes:
This is an example of some of my writings for children. I have been playing with this of late, and would appreciate your feedback. I love children's books and it has been a bit of a passion for me to try and perhaps write one some day.

Nancy,
Lovely and true! This is a way for children to deal with loss.
It is a healing piece for man, woman, child.
Fur threw me..She feels her in the breezes
that softly touch her fur [plus too many 'her']
For Sarah knows the secret
that the spirit never dies
but rides upon a melody
of soft sweet lullabies. [I'd use different than lullabies.
Lullabies meaning night time. You need something all day time.
Loved the rest of it!
You can easily write chldren's books.
Go for it!
