Sara Kendrick Poet Free verse

Dandelion Star

A star that was purchased recently
Was given the name Dandelion Star
As the cosmic wind blows every spring
Offsprings of Dandelion Star are born
Filling the second heaven with glow
Like the glow of your short life on earth
That filled the hearth and home of your family
God has given you a special place
For your Light to shine forever more
Oh! daughter precious child of God loved
For you I've purchased Dandelion Star
In the heavens as constant presence
And memory of  you my birth mother

Carolyn Devonshire April 17, 2010 at 6:41 AM Sara, this was so moving. My mother is a "star" in the heavens now too, and I'm sorry for your loss. She's looking down on you with pride, dear poet. Love, Carolyn

Sara Kendrick April 17, 2010 at 5:45 AM My birth mother died when I was sixteen months old...I was told that she died of cancer...I have not been able to get a death certificate to find out what her cause of death actually was...She had four sons and one daughter spaced about five years apart..Four of my brothers died at around fifty-five years old and one lived to be sixty-five...I am the only surviving child of that family..
