Platinum Petals

Written when my daughter was born

Platinum Petals       

 

While having that indescribable moment,

Carved in the fabric of forever,

Ocean lullabies are welcomed

And the winds around me are

So caressing, so inviting, so very nice/

wrap around my soul and

kissed me in my life.

 

Botanical prints of our experiences

weaved firmly across two cultures,

three lifestyles and one great destined path;

a foundation of love, the key to everything,

a reason one should never have to ask.

 

As great as all the wonders of the world

As great as our love for our little girl,

She is a new pink rose, just budding

with platinum petals for silkened wings.

I especiallly like the second verse, because it shows pride in all that she comes from. A beautiful tribute to your daughter:)

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
