Analysis of Baby Girl's Poem

Corina Ramirez 1964 (San Angelo)



To my last
But not my least,
Time goes so fast
But I am pleased.

With my baby girl
Whom I'm so proud,
You're like a pearl
That I just found.

You are all grown
Without a brother,
Know you're not alone
I'm still your mother.

The time will come
When I am gone,
You'll miss your mom
And feel all alone.

So keep in touch
While I'm still here,
It's just a hunch
My sweet dear.
