Victoria Gauci Poems

Let us go my Little Fish,
It is time to make your wish,
I think that you should travel light,
Now blink your eyes to take your flight,
...

He walks so handsome, tall and lean,
Nothing grander have I seen,
In my son, this child of mine,
Harmonious mirth to ever shine,
...

In this time I sit here,
With these words inside my head,
I wonder what you're doing,
I should think of other things instead,
...

What would I not give?
Every possession that I own,
To be able to sit right down,
And have you here alone,
...

When you were carried within my body,
Your life force was constant and strong,
I relished in your movement and stillness,
Your heartbeat was my rhythm and song,
...

I am left to my own devices in this world without my Mother.
She was the compass in the maps of my life.
She was my rock, my anchor, my stronghold, ever so bold.
She never steered me wrong.
...

Getting through each single day
Realizing you don’t love me
Has put me in a dizzying haze
You’ve put yourself above me
...

I'm not going to ask you to love me,
I'm going to pretend that you do,
I'm not going to ask that you need me,
But I'll always be here for you,
...

A songbird in your throat,
You could hit every note,

You could raise the heavens,
With the gift you were given,
...

In the midst of Summer's end for thee,

The Fall brings down the colored leaves,
...
