CHARMAINE SIMPSON Poems

Seven,
Fourteen,
Twenty one,
Seven year life span,
...

Are we here?
We wind down the windows!
In the distance there it is -
the unmistakable beats we all know so well.
...

You blessed this world with your presence.
You are a gift, a precious angel.
The light that shines around you begins within your soul.
...

You took my hand-
Held me so close-
Kept me safe - and warm.
You found a place for me within your soul,
...

My mother.
My creator -
giving me the gift of life -
loving me -
...

On this day capture each and every moment,
See the beauty that surrounds you,
Allow yourself to feel every emotion.
As the sun begins to rise the black velvet of night -
...

For just one moment
step out of the safety you so bravely wrap yourself in
and call your world of righteousness.
...

My beautiful boy -
There will never be words that truly express my love for you.
Your innocent little face holds this expression that defines your amazing character.
...

Our House -
Our Home -
An unread book -
The first chapter begins -
...

Me and Miss. C. - This means that i is actually we!
A child when we first met,
We have never been apart,
At least not yet.
