Poetry Corner: Mommy Songs by Debbie Wilson
Mommy Songs
by Debbie Wilson - De Soto, Missouri, USA
I never imagined
that stuffed animals
would fill my heart
with such delight!
That I would sing
silly songs in the car
and smile,
thinking of her.
Or that my arms
would ever be wrapped
around such a perfect
Miracle!
…That her breaths
would wipe away my tension,
and her smile
would fill my soul
with such peace.
She is my life,
the Center of my Hope
and the inspiration
which guides my dreams.
(And this is equally true
for Daddies, too)
