flashes of images, snippets of conversations,
half remembered lyrics of forgotten songs
favourite phrases and nonsensical words
warm shelters from nighttime fears
heart breaks barely remembered in comforting arms,

                                    precious treasures by amie689

sweet baby smells, sour toddler sweats
desperate cries and tear stained faces
sweet gurgles, shrieks of joy and childish laughter
silly games, graceful dances, half formed cartwheels
proud celebrations, quiet reassurances,
patching knees and shattered confidence

                                    the dreamer and the watcher by amie689 still waters by amie689

Grainy pictures in black and white,
turn to HD colour
holding close, letting go..
from daughter to wife and mother
44 years of life, 44 years of love
the blessed cycle will endure..

this is so pure and pretty. I can feel your immense love towards your beloved ones. Its hard to find man like have such appreciation to his wife and child (maybe because I didn't see enough around me).

Wish I can find such man that can write poetry such as this too! :)
