Sipping sodas during a movie
laughing loudly at something hilariously funny
eating pancakes quietly just us two
Girl time—our time
...
Tying shoelaces
Make two bunny ears.
The bunny runs around the tree.
The bunny jumps in a hole.
...
We talk forever
and listen
It’s one of the keys
To our happiness
...
Taking a bow
With the rest of the crew
On a stage
Painted spectacular
...
Pitty-Pat on the cereal crunched floorCrash! BOOM!
To silence…Memories of heartbeats—of children snoring
Heartbreaks now... Where did the noise go?
...
Looking out my kitchen window
Wishing for another day
another Captain Crunch and milk spilled
on the table; or peanut putter and jelly
...
In memory of—
Tortillas hot with melted butter
Making tamales in an assemble line…
Dripping chili through your fingers
...
Take a trip on a sailboat
or to the dark forest green
ride in a whale with Pinocchio
or under the covers with grandma too
...
I walk along this path
waiting for them to listen
head the call
Shall I continue to wait
...
Listen to your heart…
For it will guide you lovingly
Nourish your spirit with prayer…
...
I want to follow Him
Listen to the words
Walk in the path
That leads me…
...
Dancing in the Rain
On a warm summer day
Playing ball with buddies
All night, no matter what

My Daughter, My Friend
Sipping sodas during a movie
laughing loudly at something hilariously funny
eating pancakes quietly just us two
Girl time—our time
Holding each other and sobbing
hard
we made it through,
me and you…suffered it all
mother and daughter
friends till the end
now its your turn with her…
build a bond, learn the ropes
it will be tricky—
often sticky
tears will be shed
it will be worth it
in the end…
My daughter,
My friend
