I wrote this to my cousin, Tracy, her daughter, Hannah was killed in a car accident 4 years ago and last year on her birthday, Tracy was having and bad day--I wrote her this poem after we hung up the phone with each other. After I wrote it, I sent it to her. I just started writing and deep in my mind I wanted to get through to Tracy and let her know that Hannah loves her.
The Breeze
(To Tracy Smith)
Memories tell a million stories
Pictures make it easier to show
So look at me and don’t be sad
For this is what I want you to know
I have my beautiful angel wings
Which soar me through the air
I am all around you everyday
The breeze blowing through your hair
I am never far away
I’ll always be in sight
For brightest star in the sky
Is ours to share at night
I’m the first ray of light
When the sun starts to shine
When you look at the moon
The face in it is mine
I am watching over you
Every night and day
A piece of me with you
Guiding you along the way
When you need to talk
I am always listening to you
Close your eyes and listen
My spirit will shine through
When you are feeling sad
And you begin to weep
Always remember this mommy
I am forever yours to keep
My body may be gone
But my love pure…true
So always remember this
I Miss and Love You Too!!
this is such a beautiful poem that im sure your cousin got a lot of serene support from, and easing of the pain. i wish i had a cousin like you who eased my pain.
Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
