The Gift Poem by kellymarie middleton

The gift you gave me
is worth more than anything
more than morning coffee
more than diamond rings.

You gave me your every thought
breath and moment to
helped me, caught me, held my hand and pulled me through.

You know me better than I know myself
and knew exactly what to give
to help me find my footing
to the life I'm meant to live.

I'm here but now I'm lonely
wishing you where here to see
but I'll be for ever greatful for the wings you've given me.
