Daddy’s in the backseat
whenever Momma drives.
You should see the neighbors.
They can’t believe their eyes!
We children don’t see him;
he must be in disguise.
Daddy’s in the backseat,
Momma’s steering the car.
She never drove before
Daddy became a ‘star.’
He twinkles in heaven . . .
glimmering from afar.
Daddy, in the backseat,
relinquished his control;
Momma slides in the snow.
“Daddy I love you so
please guide the steering wheel
where the stars shine glows . . .”
published 2001 in my book, "A Little Hope"

TRUE STORY. Bella survived an abusive powerbroker father with organized crime ties, a drug-addicted mother and a physically/sexually abusive brother. Shocking & inspirational. When she couldn't cry, she tattooed a crying angel to cry for her.
A passionate and poignant memoir written by a woman whose life has been guided by the words: "I am here to learn how to love well." The book is a deep examination of relationships, family, motivation, and honoring of the Self.
