A Poem For My Daughter on Mother's Day
THERE ARE DAYS I LOOK AT YOU AND ALL I SEE IS ME.
THERE ARE DAYS I LOOK AT YOU AND ALL I SEE IS YOU.
THERE ARE DAYS I LOOK AT YOU AND NOTHING COULD EVER GIVE ME THE JOY YOU GIVE TO ME.
THERE ARE DAYS YOU HOLD ME.
THERE ARE DAYS I HOLD YOU.
THERE ARE DAYS WE CAN’T LET GO.
THERE ARE DAYS I FIND ME IN YOU.
THERE ARE DAYS I NEED ME, WITHOUT YOU.
THERE ARE DAYS I’M LOST WITHOUT YOU.
YET,
EACH PIECE OF ME, IS A PIECE OF YOU.
EACH PIECE OF YOU, IS A PIECE OF ME.
PIECES STRONG TOGETHER FROM THE VERY FIBERS OF ALL THAT IS US.
LEARNING THE STRANDS THAT BIND US IS THE FOREVER JOURNEY.
A PATH WE’LL WALK TOGETHER FOREVER AS MOTHER AND DAUGHTER.
