My mother was forty-one when she had me. I'm the youngest of six children. I have three sisters and two brothers. My oldest brother is a salesman for laundry products that are sold to dry cleaning stores. My oldest sister is a marine biologist. A few years ago she and two other women marine biologist made history on the mini sub, Alvin, when just the women took Alvin down. No men were aboard. My youngest brother is in the Marines. My second oldest sister is the proud mother of six children. My third oldest sister has taken time out from her career to raise her three children. She is a pre-school teacher.

You can see the tears in my eyes
I feel like I'm about to die
Seeing you with her the other night
It didn't feel right
When I told you it was over I lied
Because that's not what I feel inside
You know I still care
But to get back together
wouldn't be fair
when I think of you
Everyone tells me not to
But I can't help it, I miss you
I just can't let you go
I need to let my love show
But does it really matter
Our relationship is already a shatter
I know we could have more
But it's not worth fighting for
There was so much we did share
And for that I will always care...

Mother

I don't' think I ever told you
how much I appreciate the
things you do
You've always been there when
I cried and always spotted me,
when I lied
You've cleaned my wounds, when
I got hurt and punished me when
I did wrong
You were always there to kiss
me good night
You always knew now to make
things all right
I can't imagine, what it would
be like without your loving touch
You will always and forever come
first in my heart
Mom, I haven't been showing you
lately and I haven't told you, but
now I'm writing these words
down, You're not just my
mother, You're forever my best friend.

All About Me

I write my little rhymes at night, Sometimes during the day, Some admire them greatly, "Okay" is what others say, I write about love and laughter, sometimes anger too! I write about happy times and those that make me blue. There is a special meaning to every poem I write, They show my love and spirit, my power and my might And this little rhyme I wrote today Explains it all you see, because it shows My deepest thoughts All about me!
